Mountain skylines and the passage of time mark the journey of the Bootleg Prophets, travelers of the great Southwest and the four corners of this country who desire nothing more than to peddle their wares as they march on. Wares that manifest themselves in the act of fingertip touching metal, metal reverberating against wood, and sound falling from the hollow bodies of pieces of art conceived long before these four ever thought to pick them up.
Drawing from blues and bluegrass, western swing, country and western,
folk and rock and roll, the Bootleg Prophets play their own blend of American roots
music infused with the spicy flavor of the Southwest, the earnest twang of
the South, the enveloping freshness of the Pacific Northwest, and the blue
collar honesty of the Northeast.
Winners of the 2008 Specialty Duets Contest at the Four Corners Bluegrass Festival, Bootleg Prophets are Dave Devlin on dobro, mandolin, lap steel, guitar, and banjo; vocalist Cathy Faber on bass; songwriter/vocalist Tom Adler on clawhammer banjo and acoustic guitar; and songwriter/vocalist Aimee Hoyt on rhythm guitar and cajon.
I like the new picture! If you all are in town this Thursday, come check us out at the Nob Hill Shop and Stroll. We'll be at Amherst and Central... hopefully not freezing to death! -Chrystal
