We are deeply saddened to inform everyone that Kramus lead singer, songwriter, guitarist and brother Matt Ledford passed away early Friday morning in his sleep.
He is deeply missed by everyone. He was 25 years-young.
Matt is an awesome person and will be greatly missed by everyone. But he will live on in his music that he shared with all of us.
Love and miss you Matt!

KRAMUS AUDITIONS BEGIN........On February 1st, we lost our brother and singer. After taking
some time to heal and determine what the future of the band will be,
we have decided to start the search for another person to front the band.
However, we do realize that no one will ever in this lifetime be able to replace
the musical genius that is, was, and always will be Matt Ledford. Whomever
acquires this sacred position will have very big shoes to fill and expectations
to meet according to the band and the Kramus family.If you are interested and think you can even come close to what we need and are looking for,submissions will be accepted at this email address [email protected] must submit:
1) one or two songs of your best work
2) a picture that best represents how pretty you are
3) a not-so-lengthy bio describing your experience and ambitionsonly serious inquiries need apply because we haven't the time for knuckleheadsthank you
