about

From an empty theater stage in the midst of a pandemic, Prairie Mountain Brothers is sending a superb collection of live, acoustic folk songs and stage banter out to the world.

Including some never-before-heard songs, as well as some favorites from previous projects, this is a unique and uplifting live album that, who knows, just might restore some love and laughter in a world that could use it now more than ever.

A tremendous "thank you" to the crew at The Courtyard Theater for recording us from a safe distance, and to Plano Arts and Events for turning what would have been a cancelled show into a unique and inspiring live music experience. To everyone who helped put this together - we are so grateful for your support. Thank you!
