The band and it's members

Kurt Jorgensen Band
Creating a wide range of truly original music and maintaining a devoted fan base are two big hurdles for any band. For the award-winning Kurt Jorgensen Band (KJB), these hurdles are taken in stride. Formed in 1998, this hard-working Minneapolis-based group continues to convert first-time audiences into long-time fans.

It's not rare for the band to play 6 nights a week-- they can be seen in several incarnations besides the 7-member "full band" configuration. On summer Sunday afternoons, as many as 10 musicians can be found crammed on the stage at P.D. Pappy's in Stillwater for a family-friendly affair. Another option, the 4-piece stripped down ensemble, referred to as the "acoustic" band, plays Tuesday nights at Nye's in Minneapolis to a more hip urban crowd. You can even catch a 2-man show, Kurt and Z, if you watch the schedule carefully. Each type of show is a little different and highlights the band's diverse array of talent. (See THE SHOWS tab for more details.)

Come out and catch a performance! There's a bit of something for everyone.
