Pure Prairie League

Pure Prairie League makes their Bilheimer Capitol Theatre return, bringing fans an evening filled with timeless hits and feel-good favorites! From their beginnings in mid-Sixties Ohio as a group of friends playing cover tunes to the present-day unit featuring the propulsive team of drummer Scott Thompson and bassist Jared Camic, Keyboard Master Randy Harper, Guitar Ace/vocalist Jeff Zona and Pedal Steel/Saxophonist John Heinrich, Pure Prairie League continues to embellish the rich 50-plus year history of one of Country-Rock’s pioneering forces. Their eponymous first album - featuring the Norman Rockwell/Saturday Evening Post cover that introduced fans to PPL’s trademark cowpoke Sad Luke - has been hailed as a “major early influence in the emerging popularity of Country-Rock music.” Their second effort, the multi-platinum Bustin’ Out brought us the Craig Fuller-penned classic Amie, along with other gems of the genre. With Two Lane Highway, nine more albums and countless shows, a legacy has been forged and enriched. Now, with the release of their new album Back On Track, PPL brings it all back home with a dozen new songs that complete the circle begun in 1970 and continues to this day.
