• #Repost @mariposafolk • • • • • • It is with deep sadness we learned about that passing of John Prine, a rare talent and true original who was loved and cherished by his fans. His peers would sell their souls to write such evocative songs. Fellow performers were inspired by the palpable connection he had with audiences. In a storied career spanning five decades, John Prine finished at the top of his game with an Album of the Year Americana Award for 2018’s superb The Tree of Forgiveness. The Recording Academy honoured him with a Lifetime Achievement Grammy Award in 2020. It is a tall order to muster words befitting a lyrical master. Let’s just say that John Prine was one of the most consequential artists ever to grace the Americana, folk and country music scenes, with a song writing style that epitomized “the rejection of artifice, the mystery of ordinariness, the humor in the mundane”. As though to comfort us when the time came for him to move on, the last track on his final album, When I Get to Heaven, provides a heartwarming glimpse of what he saw awaiting him. We’re going to miss you John, but we will never forget you. Thank you for all the great tunes and memories you left behind.

And if there's no emoji, see if you can combine some! 🎼🎤🎷 🎸 🎹 🎺 🎻 🥁 This shot is from the @mariposafolk from a few years ago.
