Catch NHPR's The Folk Show with Kate McNally on-air each Friday at 9 p.m. and again Sunday at 7 p.m. You can also find the newest episode on Mixcloud, or by clicking the player below.

Influenced by legends like Chet Atkins, Doc Watson, and Bill Monroe, the Kruger Brothers began as European street musicians before moving to America. Now an award-winning band, they have wowed audiences by creating a sound entirely their own.

The group recently stopped by The Folk Show to share songs and conversation with host Kate McNally.

They also have a unique collaborative performance, "Symphony of the Mountains: Show Me the Paths," coming up May 17 at ETSU in Johnson City, TN.

Below, watch the Kruger Brothers join Steve Martin for a classic appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman:
