Growing up, a guitar was in the corner of the family basement that no one was supposed to touch. When no one was looking, a young Chris Kroeze (pronounced Cruise-E) would sneak down and find it. On his 6th birthday, Chris got his own guitar and hasn’t put it down since.

They were made from scrap metal just for fun. The Big Foot appeared in 1991, becoming the identifying landmark for the town of Vining.​In 1999, after 43 years in construction, Ken retired.
