The Forgotten ProphetsFrom different walks of life across the United States which found them crossing paths in Austin, Texas, The Forgotten Prophets are a musical collective— immediately accessible to any listener seeking genuine musicianship, song craft, and honest performance. At their foundation, this is a band of music lovers playing for those who love music.
Original yet familiar, The Forgotten Prophets forge their own path through the backwoods roots of American rock and roll. Their debut album, The End (2016), was recorded live in the studio in four days. “We’re not trying to reinvent the wheel,” begins bassist Pat Harris. “We just want to play the music that resonates within us– it’s somewhere between Jackson Browne, The Grateful Dead, The Band, and Ry Cooder.” It’s music for the sake of music, without click-tracks, tuned vocals, or auxiliary players; just a group of friends enjoying their time together.
As a group with many eclectic tastes, influences, and abilities, The Forgotten Prophets spent much of 2017 dedicated to the performance and recording of The Empress: a 4 movement, 45 minute, through composed progressive piece based on the symbolism in The Empress Tarot card. Since 2019, The Forgotten Prophets are digging deep into American blues and roots music to inspire their original material and continue to play to appreciative listeners throughout Central Texas.
