His roots stem from New York’s Hudson Valley, but his music has taken him all over the United States, and at times abroad, gaining him an ever-growing fan base.

Carrying on the tradition of Cosmic American Music, David’s influences include Gram Parsons, Neil Young, Bob Dylan and The Band. These influences along with his unique sense of melody and lyric help create a sound that is truly his own. Kraai has been fortunate enough to release several albums and share stages and bills with some of his heroes like Pete Seeger, Levon Helm, Garth Hudson, Dickey Betts, Leon Russell, Charlie Louvin and more.

David Kraai & The Saddle Tramps features David on vocals, acoustic guitar & harmonica, Chris Ragucci on drum kit, Fooch Fischetti on pedal steel guitar & fiddle and Chris Macchia on bass guitar. A diverse group of musicians, between them, the members of The Saddle Tramps have performed onstage and on bills with Willie Nelson, Emmylou Harris, Little Feat, Phil Lesh, Neal Casal and many more.
