To listen to Kri play is to remember our legacy as spiritual beings with tumultuous desires, with an innate need to pound our feet into the Earth to raise our prayers to the heavens...on the dance floor that translates to his creating all-consuming, orgiastic rituals of dance where he pushes you past your limits to a place beyond a good party or a great time, but to a place where you can capture a glimpse of a future in which the primal and the technological fuse to bring us a passionate and fulfilling existence on a planet that survives. Heavy? Yeah, but so is the Psychedelic Goa Trance experience, and heavier still is a night filled with Kris dark, driving tracks, his momentum slowly building like a panthers body tensing each muscle till its time to strike its prey, and then, youre a goner.

The Grey Eagle is a listening room-style concert venue, not a bar or nightclub. While many artists who regularly perform here have dedicated followings, we cannot offer potential performers a built-in crowd. Likewise, while we love to discover new music and help artists begin their careers, we cannot host performers who are unknown to Asheville audiences. Like many listening rooms around the US, The Grey Eagle is a destination location: an artist must already have some “marquee value” in the Asheville area in order to perform here. If you are (or represent) an artist who is relatively unknown in Western North Carolina there are many other options for you, and a quick search on the web should give you a host of possibilities.
