KIRSTIE KRAUS: a country star on the rise with some brilliant releases paving the way

Text us about this show.Kirstie Kraus might be firmly entrenched in the Nashville scene, but she hasn't forgotten her Wisconsin roots. She's equally at home recording solo releases or collaborating with others in Music City (Mark Mulch, Christie Huff, Thomas Kavanaugh) or the Fox Cities (Joe Sly and Fox Menagerie). She made a statement immediately in 2018 with her dance single "Delusional" and from there she migrated into pop-tinged country where she really found her voice. After a strong showing in 2022 with her album Yes You Can, she's ready to drop "Largo" with Mike Nash, a fun and flirty single that will put a smile on plenty of faces."Silver" performed by Kirstie Krauswritten by Kirstie Kraus, Erica Sunshine, and Lee Ziv© 2020 Kraus House of Entertainment."Largo" written and performed by Mike Nash & Kirstie Kraus© 2025 Kraus House of Entertainment."Weeds" performed by Fox Menagerie ft.
