Von Kraut is a 5 piece r&b boogie band headed by Brooklyn songwriter Jason Kraut whose red afro, silky falsetto, and Lenny Kravitz guitar chops, could help anyone rediscover their inner pimp.

‘Betula Nigra’ and 'Muellenbergia Capillaris' might sound like botanic names but to FireDean and the 'The Brooklyn Garden Club' they are the set list. Described byThe Washington Post as "...One of the most talented songwriters around...", the band's live show goes epic with every cultivar they've loved, and alienated.

The Deaf Bastards get behind Tee Templeton for this show to expand and riff off of his singer songwriter diddlings. When that happens Tee's ElliotSmithesque misery becomes electrified, personified, and glorified. Blue becomes purple. Warm turns to wham. And "shhh" is now "whoa!"
