Meena Cryle & The Chris Fillmore Band

Meena Cryle & Chris Fillmore have been among the most successful Austrian music exports in the international Blues 'n' Roots scene for many years, and their performances at various festivals in Europe and the USA, as well as in renowned venues like the Vienna State Opera, have often been met with standing ovations. "An extraordinarily expressive, versatile, and above all, touching singer, and a gifted guitarist whose almost dreamlike ease with his instrument fascinates every time anew," is how various concert reviews in the media describe them. The duo is accompanied by two legends who stand on their own. Angus Thomas on bass, who played in the band of Miles Davis, and Lenny Dickson on drums, whose work can be heard on several Tom Waits albums. After their successful show at VBS 2025, they are once again a fixed part of the festival this year.
