“A little bluegrass/country in the Loretta Lynn & Tammy Wynette tradition with a dash of what sounds like Appalachian s
- 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 ur 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.”
-Chris Roditis, MUSICNGEAR
Biography:
If Texas-based singer-songwriter Long Prairie’s name evokes imagery of a heartlands setting
where wheatfields wave and dust clouds sometimes roll, that’s intentional. Not only did she
choose her performing identity in homage to the same-named Minnesota town near her
birthplace, as demonstrated on her new album, “Humble Love” releasing August 8th, she writes songs
rooted in the heart, filled with a sense of place and nature’s beauty. They carry a keen observer’s
appreciation for detail — sometimes colored in tints of nostalgia, sometimes delivered in stark
black-and-white — but always conveying essential truths. The kind of songs folk/Americana
singers write, reaching into their own hearts and hoping to touch listeners’ souls.
