Adrian and Meredith Biography
www.adrianandmeredith.com
Rogue folk duo Adrian+Meredith have always been ones to march to their own beat, and have never been apologetic for the art they create. Since the duo joined forces in 2015, they have been pounding the pavement, putting their own spin on Americana. Their music embodies the spirit of the human story with a nod to punk, the heart of folk, flavor of Polka, and bounce of swing. Their live show will have you on your feet dancing, clapping, and stomping along.
2019 was filled with 175+ dates touring the USA and Europe with opening shows in the UK with The Legendary Shack Shakers, and tours in Sweden, Norway, and Eastern Europe alongside their US markets in the Midwest, East and West Coast. In the wake of Covid, this band pushed forward with their sophomore release Bad For Business (August, 2021).
Bad for Business highlights the elements that make Adrian+Meredith’s music truly theirs—and is a true representation of their live show. Adrian Krygowski’s gritty vocals and driving guitar, Meredith’s Krygowski’s fiery fiddling, and floating harmonies, and the band’s distinctive, foot-stomping bounce and sense of eclecticism—all of it has ferocious intentionality. And, from there, the pair get innovative. They use Meredith’s foot percussion on the introduction to “Kids These Days,” they add not one horn but a whole Balkan brass section on “Too Far,” and they give “California,” with its surf-a-billy guitar flourishes, an unexpected indie rock lean. Clearly, Bad for Business goes big, highlighting Adrian+Meredith’s confidence in their vision, as well as the influence of their musical mentors, particularly The Legendary Shackshakers’ JD Wilkes and Mark Robinson, the latter of whom produced and mixed the album.
The record is the sound of Adrian+Meredith’s front door, propped wide open, an intention that is brought to the stage at every performance. The audience is drawn inside by the couple’s warmth, intensity, joy, energy and frankness—and in the end, is left with a sense of easy joy and friendship the times have all but forgot.
Since resuming live shows post covid, Adrian+Meredith take their fearless, blistering, and Balkan-tinged Americana to new heights with a live show that resembles a raucous, rebellious and home-spun variety show. 2023 has brought their full band sound back to the stage with festivals, tours, and teaching workshops throughout the USA and Europe. Two European tours, festivals like Blissfest (MI), Portland’s Folk Fest (OR) Mile of Music (WI), Jazz paa Fejoe (DK), Ahlen Fest (DE) and Wheatland Music Festival (MI), and support tours w/ Legendary Shackshakers, Jimbo Mathus, Shawn James and, Steve N' Seagulls all fill the calendar.
