Mark Kroos is an international guitar superstar who plays 2 guitar necks at the same time. Originally from Lansing, MI but currently based in Williamsburg, VA, his primarily instrumental style is characterized by open harmonies, polyphonic textures, incredible tapping techniques, and is as entertaining to watch as it is to listen to. Live performances burst with energy and magnetism not typical of solo guitar music. Drawing influence from folk, Celtic, Indie, and even punk rock artists as well as other great guitarists such as Michael Hedges, Phil Keaggy, Tommy Emmanuel and Leo Kottke, Mark Kroos has developed his own edge to the acoustic guitar.
