Henhouse Prowlers,

Grateful String Band, Far Too Close,
7PM Doors | 8PM Show
21+
Lincoln Hall

In the 15 years since the Henhouse Prowlers inception, the band has forged its own path through bluegrass music and across the globe. On stage, the group’s enthralling performances give audiences a sense how much they love what they do; while on record, the band manages to explore their collective life-experiences through songwriting and intricate instrumentation. While bluegrass is the undeniable foundation of the Prowlers music, the band manages to bend and squeeze the traditional form into a sound all their own. With over 175 shows a year, the quartet has managed to tour more than 25 countries, often going to places traditional American music has never been. Tours in Siberia or the Middle East are not uncommon since the Prowlers started working as cultural ambassadors with the US State Department in 2013. These global experiences have pushed the band in new musical directions, (with songs from Africa and Asia on multiple albums), and have also moved the group to start a new educational outreach program for both school children and festival-goers alike. Bluegrass Ambassadors is the Henhouse Prowlers non-profit organization that uses traditional American music as a foundation to talk about folk music and culture’s all over the world. The Henhouse Prowlers released two albums in 2017, including “Live from Kyrgyzstan” and the brand new studio album “Separation Man” in. 2019 holds tours to Asia, Europe, and more untold adventures as the Prowlers continue to bring their own blend of bluegrass and world music to hearts unknown.

This show is at Lincoln Hall
