The Paraguayan band KRAUTS is set to cross borders for a mini-tour in Brazil at the end of October, marking an ambitious step to connect with new audiences. The tour will include performances in Ciudad del Este, Paraguay, and Foz de Iguazú, Brazil.
Originating from the Chaco region of Paraguay, KRAUTS began its journey in April 2020 amidst pandemic lockdowns. Musicians Mario Regier and Matthias Giesbrecht initially formed the group, then known as The Krauts, around a campfire. What started as informal jam sessions quickly gained traction in the local cultural scene, leading to 33 live performances in 2021 and the recording of original songs.
Despite facing periods of uncertainty, lineup changes, and a less active 2023 on stage, the band persevered. In 2025, KRAUTS underwent a significant artistic redefinition, shifting towards a more powerful and focused hard rock sound. They streamlined their image and name to align with this new direction, drawing inspiration from bands like AC/DC, Krokus, Airbourne, and Rhino Bucket.
Six years after their improvised beginnings, KRAUTS has forged a distinct identity in the local circuit. Now, they are ready to project their Chaco-born rock sound onto international stages, with Brazil as their first major target market. This tour represents a significant milestone in their ongoing artistic development and pursuit of broader recognition.
