Maury Muehleisen - Jim Croce’s “One Man Band”

The heart and soul behind Jim Croce’s music

Maury, the quiet friend who was rarely recognized for his influence on the beautiful guitar duets that changed the way many guitarists have played and written songs, a musical Genius with a capital “G”.

On September 20, 1973, after a concert on the campus of Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana, Maury perished in a plane crash along with Jim Croce. The world has yet to see another musical talent as Maury Muehleisen. This website is dedicated to his memory.
