2004 NAPPA award winner. Familiar songs with a fresh, whimsical sound -a joyous musical tour of pioneer history, wrapped up in a patchwork quilt of traditional American folk songs- strong, warm vocals as the centerpiece.
Bio / Background
Award-winning "Prairieland" is a joyous musical tour of Pioneer history. The fourteen traditional American folk songs have been freely and whimsically adapted with banjo, fiddle, washboard,and even the musical saw - with Patti's warm and powerful voice as the centerpiece.
"Prairieland" is based on a program originally designed for the Old Town School of Folk Music's Global Roots Outreach and the Chicago Historical Society's Park Voyager elementary-age history programs. The CD also includes a 24 page, full color booklet with archival photos, historical notes and web addresses for further study. You can even visit Patti's website, www.pattisongs.com for a vocabulary list, activities, links, lyrics and other resources.
"Prairieland" is a 2004 NAPPA (National Parenting Publications)Honors award winner and a finalist in the 2003 Children's Music Web Awards.
Patti Ecker grew up in the Historic Peaslee House in South Elgin, Illinois, now home of the South Elgin Historic Commission.
