Chris Jones & The Night Drivers are among the most outstanding and consistently successful bands in the contemporary bluegrass genre. With elegant yet driving arrangements, emotional depth, and sharp humor, they captivate audiences worldwide—from major U.S. festivals to tours across Europe, including Germany, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, and Ireland. As a sought-after live act, they captivate audiences in the most prestigious concert halls, and following their acclaimed debut at the legendary Grand Ole Opry in July 2022, they have performed on this iconic stage ever since.
Frontman Chris Jones is highly regarded by critics and fellow musicians alike – his distinctive voice is considered by Steve Martin to be "one of the great master voices" and by Grammy winner Jim Lauderdale as "fine wine for the ears." The band, consisting of Mark Stoffel (mandolin), Grace van't Hof (banjo, ukulele), and Nelson Williams (bass), stands for top-notch instrumental quality and infectious enthusiasm. Innovative yet steeped in tradition, the band presents exclusively self-penned songs on their latest album, "Make Each Second Last." The album spawned eight consecutive number-one hits, including "We Needed This Ride," and "Riding the Chief." Their most recent EP, "Pages in Your Hand," also topped the airplay charts, further cementing Chris Jones & The Night Drivers' status as a creative force within the genre.
Tickets are CHF 40-50.
