Live Music: The Prospectres
The Prospectres
The Prospectres are a band of benevolent spectres, digging for nuggets of lyrical stories found between the lines. Influenced by both the past and the present, their sound is a mix of upbeat folk, witty western, Canadiana, blues, that creeping sensation you get in the deep dark woods, & more of the strangely familiar. The majority of their set consists of original songs, with a few carefully chosen covers found off-the-beaten-path (some dating back to the 1930s). Theatrical use of instruments are traits unique to the band (with a mix of guitar, banjo, and fiddle as the bedrock – with surprising oddities making appearances, such as the kazoo, accordion, trumpet, or soft-shoe dancing). The Prospectres’ aim is for audience enthralment, through unique stage presence, toe-tapping rhythms, and beguiling lyrics. Invermere, BC is their home, and the Columbia Valley is their haunting ground.
