SUMMARY:Henhouse Prowlers
DESCRIPTION:With many of their wildest dreams strung across two decades as an outfit\, the Prowlers’ sight remains fixed on the future. \nIt’s been 20 years well spent. The kinship between Ben Wright (banjo\, vocals)\, Chris Dollar (guitar\, vocals)\, Jon Goldfine (bass\, vocals)\, and Jake Howard (mandolin\, vocals) is palpable\, the four having traveled to places most touring musicians could never predict. Using these experiences as a foundation\, there’s truly no limit to where this Chicago-based quartet will go – literally and figuratively.
