July 13, 2025Well worth the $
Will did a great job of entertaining our guests. His music was really good and he complimented it with great work on his guitar. He was easy to work with and I would certainly use him again for another occasion.

I've seen Will in concert several times. His guitar playing and singing are phenomenal.
His tribute to John Denver is spot on, plus he can sound like Paul Simon.
He's in a Peter, Paul, and Mary tribute band, making him sound like Paul Stuckey.
You'd enjoy his music, I'm sure!

July 27, 2017Fantastic person, Amazing Musician!
Will Kruger is not only a great musician, entertainer, Songwriter, and singer. He is one fantastic human being, and I am honored to have been able to get to know him in the last couple of years. His music will captivate your heart, his songs all have a great story behind them. If you get the chance to see Will perform it will be unforgettable. Better yet if you can see him perform and meet him, you will see what I am talking about. I have seen Will several times and had him do a house party at our house in the summer of 2016, which was absolutely amazing.

What to expect
Hello
My Singer/Songwriter Tribute Show to the music of John Denver, James Taylor, Gordon Lightfoot and Paul Simon for your upcoming season To give you some statistics on the success of my show, we sold out both Singer Songwriter shows at the Belfry Music Theatre in Williams Bay Wisconsin Aug 19th and 20th 2016. In August of 2015, I volunteered to do a John Denver Tribute to help raise funds for the Historic Belfry Music Theatre, it was the first show there in 14 years and was a sold out performance.
From the success of that show, the Belfry Music Theatre ask me again the following year to bring a slightly different performance showcasing other classic singer-songwriters Paul Simon, Gordon Lightfoot, James Taylor as well as John Denver
For this show, we sold out and all tickets were purchased beforehand with none available at the door. More recently I did this show Jan 26th at Sun City Del Webb Huntley, From the success of my shows at the Belfry of 500 in ticket sales and 450 people at an outdoor Conservation District Concert I did June 3rd, and 300 Sun City. I think I have a unique and flexible tribute model. People that come to my concerts have been thoroughly entertained according to box office feedback from Eventbright ticketing surveys
With the success of these shows, I’m looking to bring this show to even larger audiences. My show starts at $3500 depending on seating capacity + Lodging and travel for three

About
Will Kruger. Guitarist, singer/songwriter, and entertainer, singing to sold out crowds. Will brings a unique sense of clarity and a strong emphasis to the lyrical content of his selection of songs. His musical roots go back to the folk era where influence from the likes of Peter Paul & Mary, Simon & Garfunkel, Gordon Lightfoot, John Denver and James Taylor have shaped his musical style.
He has toured nationally in California, Nevada, Colorado, Arkansas, Tennessee and throughout the Midwest. As solo artist Will has performed at various house concerts, libraries, conservation events, coffee houses and auditoriums. He has shared the stage with CCM legend Randy Stonehill and John Denver tribute artist Roy Rivers.

As well as a guest spot at Music City Smoke House.
Will has always been attracted to the simplicity, message, and melodies of folk music accompanied by the acoustic guitar. More recently his love of the music of Peter Paul & Mary has lead him to a dream position as Noel Paul Stookey in the nationally touring premier tribute group “Peter Paul & Mary Alive” along with band mates Joan Brown and Peter Gordon
His compassion for the music of John Denver, James Taylor, Gordon Lightfoot and Paul Simon has inspired Will to perform a "Singer Songwriter Tribute” show to sold out crowds at the Belfry Music Theatre in Williams Bay WI.. Will performed John Denver’s music at the Wheeler Opera House Aspen Colorado Oct 9th 2014 as part of the John Denver Tribute Celebration
