Lincoln, Nebraska guitar slinger Kris Lager has a story to tell and a whole new way to tell it.

Lager will unveil his new Texas Blues Rock duo and lots of new material on Sunday, Nov. 1, when he performs at Parlor City Pub and Eatery 1125 3rd St. S.E. Cedar Rapids, Iowa from 6-10 p.m. There will not a cover charge for this performance.

The Kris Lager Band’s lineup has changed dramatically, with longtime wingman and Hammond hauler Jeremiah Weir now positioned behind the drum-kit and performing as a duo. The change of lineup necessitates new material informs Lager, adding “we feel we’re making the best music we’ve made in years!” Of his relationship with longtime band-mate Jeremiah Weir, Lager states “musically we take care of each other and communicate…ultimately, we both just love to have a good time!”

Kris Lager says he is looking forward to sharing this new version of his signature Texas Blues Rock with his friends and fans in Eastern Iowa and then get right back into the studio to begin recording. Lager has become a Blues Rock fixture across the Midwest, with many memorable performances in Eastern Iowa. Local Blues fans remember the Kris Lager Band opening a Linn County Blues Society concert at Third Street Live that featured the Lonnie Brooks Band.
