“There’s nothing between the song and the listener with ‘Humble Love‘ from Long Prairie – it’s an earnest declaration of adoration that only gains weight from the lack of clutter in the accompaniment – a voice and a guitar and that’s all you need”.
-Jonathon Aird, Americana UK
“A little bluegrass/country in the Loretta Lynn & Tammy Wynette tradition with a dash of what sounds like Appalachian spirit.
- John Alpice, Americana Highways
“Long Prairie’s latest album, By Sunrise, marks a significant evolution for the artist, blending rich emotional depth with an expansive musical palette. With a tracklist that traverses both upbeat folk anthems and introspective ballads, the album captures a spectrum of human experience—each song a brushstroke on the canvas of life’s complexities.”
- Garth Thomas, Hollywood Digest
“Movies made the transition to color from black-and-white along about the time of The Wizard of Oz, held back only by the economics in the years of the Depression. Photography, on the other hand, maintains a vibrant vein of black-and-white artistry to this day. Monochrome enhances the effect of light and shadow without the distraction of your eye to different elements in the picture. That’s kind of the effect I get when I listen to the latest album from Minnesota-born but current central Texas songstress Long Prairie, entitled By Sunrise.”
-Shawn Underwood, Twangville
“This is Americana storytelling at its finest, and Long Prairie knows exactly how to hit all the right notes.”
