Victor Krummenacher is the San Francisco-based co-founder of indie rock icons Camper Van Beethoven, and has a new solo album titled "Hard To See Trouble Coming," which features a collection of original songs highlighting his love of the blues, country rock and folk traditions.
On Hard To See Trouble Coming, Krummenacher draws from a variety of disparate influences, including the freewheeling punk aesthetic that was part of the original CVB lineup, and what he, borrowing from Gram Parsons, calls "cosmic country" and "cosmic folk." His chief musical inspiration, however, was Van Morrison's iconic 1968 album Astral Weeks.
The title of Krummenacher's 9th solo effort was inspired by an old radio interview with The Band's, Levon Helm. When asked how he reacted to the suicide of keyboardist Richard Manuel, Helm replied "It's hard to see trouble coming."
