Kerry Grombacher’s “Range of the Buffalo” was named 2021 Song of the Year by the International Western Music Association. In the spirit of the troubadours of old, his contemporary folk and western songs paint vivid portraits and tell fascinating stories that are set in the landscape he travels, from the bayous of Louisiana, through the desert Southwest, to the Hi-Line of Montana and the forests of the Pacific Northwest.  His songs about our region include an ode to Rock Springs and ballads set on the Hi-Line, plus a mambo about Buffalo Bill taking the Wild West Show to New Orleans in 1884 for the World Cotton Exposition. Kerry, who is sponsored by Elixir Guitar & Mandolin Strings and logs as many as 40,000 miles each year driving from show to show, is a regular visitor to Wyoming.
 
“I always look forward to returning to Wyoming,” said Grombacher, who has performed from Jackson to Newcastle and from Powell to Cheyenne. “I have many friends here, all around the state, and, as a western songwriter, I’m fascinated by the state’s history and landscape. Everywhere I’ve been, I’ve been delighted by the knowledgeable and attentive audiences.”
 
In the course of his nationwide tours, Kerry Grombacher has sung his songs on stages as varied as the Newport Folk Festival, the Arizona Cowboy Poets Gathering, the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, and the Gene Autry Museum of Western Heritage. He performs regularly at concert halls and other music venues, and he’s been featured on “Born to Explore,” the ABC Television adventure travel program and on “River City Folk,” the nationally syndicated public radio music interview program. Kerry is heard frequently on Wyoming Public Radio, and he’s talked to students about creativity and songwriting in public schools and at Northwest College and Western Wyoming Community College.
