Chris Eldridge and Kristin Andreassen

About the duo

Kristin and Critter met back when their bands Uncle Earl and Punch Brothers were just getting started. Over the years, they've shared the stage and studio with some of most luminous artists of our time (Paul Simon, John Paul Jones, Emmylou Harris) and they've won awards (John Lennon Song Contest Grand Prize, a Grammy, Americana Music Association Instrumentalist of the Year). New parenthood has gifted this couple with more time at home, and more time to play music together. As a duo, they favor Kristin's originals, peppered with the bluegrass and old time standards that Critter grew up on. All reimagined for two guitars, close harmonies, the occasional riff on a dance board or harmonica, and an ever more finely-tuned sense of β€œthe things that matter.”
