Kristoffer Andrew Ross

Kristoffer's performances are fun-filled yet reflective. Kristoffer interacts with his audience throughout, and introduces most songs with stories of their origins, backgrounds on the traditional trades he sings of, or tales that are simply too witty to pass by.

A skilled young Traditional Celtic singer and guitarist, Kristoffer Andrew Ross has been singing with varied groups and solo throughout Upstate New York for a number of years. He brings his enthusiasm for and knowledge of folk music with him wherever he goes, performing unaccompanied or with fingerstyle guitar and Irish bouzouki.
In addition to solo work, he directs and performs with The Men o’ War Balladeers, who have produced two albums.
Kristoffer has also works as a Designer, Stage Technician, and Technical Director at Theaters in Cambridge, Saratoga Springs, and Albany, NY and Bennington, VT.

I usually perform sitting down, so that I can quickly switch between guitar, bouzouki and other instruments.
If a show requires amplification, please discuss with me beforehand.
