Critter Ruwart is an independent folk band rooted in authentic storytelling, rhythmic instrumentation, and the type of divine vocal harmony that can only be created by blood brothers - genetically linked together in a heavenly chorus equally as unique as it is inimitable.

With a core trio consisting of Chris Ruwart on Lead Vocal and guitar; Brendan Ruwart (Banjo); and Igor Trifunovic on Violin, the group first came to our attention through recording engineer Andy Reed, who has been producing tracks for the group’s debut album.

The first thing one is struck with by this group is the sincerity of their craftsmanship and the purity and depth of their musical focus - two qualities that belie their youthfulness with a maturity of understanding rare to find in popular music.

As one of the group we'll be featuring at this year's 40th REVIEW Music Awards on May 3rd, recently we sat down with Chris to find out more about the qualities of composition and the band’s journey from Wyoming to the Great Lakes Bay of Michigan that has led them to this pivotal point in their musical career that has taken them to the crossroads they find themselves at today.

We hope you enjoy!

The Hound of the Baskervilles, which was written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and first published back in 1902, is a classic Sherlock Holmes novel and one of Doyle’s most famous pieces of work.

Blending Gothic horror with detective fiction as Holmes and Watson investigate a family curse and a demonic hound haunting the Baskerville family on the moors of Devonshire; the storyline follows their investigation into the mysterious death of Sir Charles Baskerville and the subsequent danger to the new family heir, Sir Henry, uncovering a plot of murder and greed behind the supernatural legend.

Fast forward to the comedic genius of playwright Ken Ludwig to transform Doyle’s literary classic into a murderously funny adventure - the results of which Pit & Balcony Community Theatre will have on full display when they present the regional premier of BASKERVILLE: A Sherlock Holmes Mystery, set to run in a series of performances from April 10-12 & 17-19th.
