Black Prairie

Hey. You know those people in the Decemberists who aren't Colin Meloy? And the drummer (I think. I don't know. I'm not getting on Wikipedia to check). Well, they made a band with some other guys. It's called Black Prairie. It's big and sweeping and mostly instrumentals. Just like the prairie, I guess? The instrumentals are great, although I wish they had a few more songs with purty words because their rendition of "Red Rocking Chair" is a standout moment on the album. Regardless, it's bluegrass, it's fun, it'll hold you over until the Decemberists come.
