Welcome to Electric Prairie

Well, first of all you’ve got to understand our name.

We wanted a name that expresses the joy and excitement we feel for the great old music we’ve been performing the past few years at churches, coffee houses and other venues in and around Missouri and Kansas.

The name comes from that come-alive feeling you get when you’re driving through the prairie, perhaps the vast Flint Hills of Kansas, and you get caught in a rainstorm. The sky darkens, storm clouds churn across the sky and bolts of lightening shred the horizon. The entire prairie is suddenly electric with an awesome and encompassing show of power. And in that beautiful show of energy and light, you just know that you are in the presence of God.

So that’s what’s up with the name. As for the music, we like to think we weave together a unique blend of folk, blues, bluegrass and gospel into what we call, for want of any better description, eclectic Americana.
