REPRESENTATION
Prairie Wildfire originated in a prairie town beneath the Bighorn Mountains of Wyoming.
Band members Morgan Blaney, Sage Palser, and Tessa Taylor perform a mix of folk, bluegrass, classic country, and a little bit of wildfire Wyoming-style western music.
The trio offers tight harmony and sophisticated instrumentation featuring Sage on the mandolin, Tessa on clawhammer banjo, and Morgan on the upright bass.
Tessa’s gritty voice is filled with energy and emotion and the classic traditions of old-time and cowboy music. Morgan offers a crystal clear tone which blends influences from country, bluegrass, and jazz. Sage belts out rich ballads and classic country sounds–and a yodel or two.
The band alternates lead singers and rips through melodies, rhythms, and breaks with practiced ease, producing a sound that is unique yet reminiscent
of better times. . .
and better tunes.
MORGAN BLANEY//
UPRIGHT BASS, VOCALS
Prairie Wildfire's oldest member, Morgan Blaney, picked up the upright bass at a local summer camp when she was 10 years old and promptly declared that she had "found her thing"--and she had. After a few weeks of lessons, she began playing bass at a local jam, and has never looked back. She has been with Prairie Wildfire since its inception in 2015 when a band of middle school girls performed for the first time at a local Stars of Tomorrow contest. A three-time all state high school jazz bassist, Morgan pursued both jazz and bluegrass music performance at the University of Northern Colorado in Greeley. She will graduate in 2023 as its first double major in bluegrass and jazz. She plans to pursue a career of musical performance.

"I have been playing music alongside these young ladies since they were pre-teens. I am honored to have produced this project. I can't wait for you to hear the powerful lead vocals and sweet harmonies of Prairie Wildfire."
- David Stewart, Producer, Friend, & Mentor
