March 16 , 2009: A Hotter Sound for Summer

After months of holing up and buckling down to record our demo, Prairie Soul finally emerged from the studio to play a fun and well-received show at Music Folk on Sunday, March 8 (pictures coming soon and possibly some song clips). It was great to get in front of an audience again-especially one as enthusiastic as the Music Folk crowd-and we were particularly excited about the great response to our new material. Thanks to Mark and the crew at Music Folk for hosting the concert, and thanks to Caravelle for their own engaging and eclectic set.


Given the great response to our brand-new, more-upbeat covers (including our first full-band instrumental number), we're proud to say that Prairie Soul will be adding more energy and more variety to our summer shows. To see what we mean, be sure to keep up with our busy summer gig schedule and stop by to check out our sound, which is just a bit hotter and a little more toe-tappin' than ever before, if we do say so ourselves!


A quick look at the upcoming gig list on your left shows that we're continuing to add gigs at a pretty quick pace. Up next is our first stop at Thurman Grill & Provision. Join us an evening of eclectic fare and some new tunes. Mark your calendar for our performance at Chesterfield Arts Fridays Uncorked event on May 1. This fundraising event features a complimentary drink, dessert, Prairie Soul tunes, and some great visual art too! The Laumeier Art Fair in St. Louis, where we'll take the stage at noon on Saturday, May 9, is a great opportunity to catch PS tunes and support local, regional and national artists. And of course, June 6 will see us return to Kirkwood Farmer's Market, where we hope you'll stop to enjoy fresh PS tunes and fresh produce, too.


Be sure to watch the site in the weeks ahead, because booking for several more spring and summer shows is in the works. Stay tuned, and we'll see you soon!
