About Us
Sound Crossing is the vision of Christopher Marion and Deanna Landwehr. They are quirky neighbors who seek inspiring experiences with unlikely folks.
The duo is forging their sound through life experiences, relentless study and practice, winding highways, and an eclectic friendship.
Their warm acoustic music with distinctive harmonies is unprocessed and real. It blends an old-time bluegrass flavor with hints of classic country and Jimi Hendrix.
Work is in progress on their first studio album!
Sound Crossing brings their unique sound to live venues, private events and nursing homes throughout the Midwest.
