On Stage at Wisteria Cornstalk

Also On Stage at Solstice . . .

Momentary Prophets make acoustic music with acoustic instruments and Love. Their music has been called everything from relaxing to transcendent. Most simply stick to “I’ve never heard that before.” ‘Prophets began as a performance troupe in Spring of 2006 combining colorful music, colorful clothes, and absurdity. The band has given up none of these as they have honed their craft to include infectious rhythms, intricate and inter-locking melodies and a genre all their own. “Progressive Rainbow Grass” is the closest thing they can come up with. Some of their favorite instruments that they can actually play include the 6 and 12 string guitar, ukulele, banjo, sitar, stand-up bass, electric organ, and kalimba.
