Drunken Prayer/Morgan Geer
With a musical career that started in the 90’s at Warren Wilson College, Morgan Christopher Geer has spent the past 30 years bringing a mix of Punk, Rock, Blues, Country, Gospel, and Americana to fans across the United States and beyond. His former local bands include The Merle and Unholy Trio. After a conversation with Tom Waits in California, Geer was inspired to start his most recent musical venture, Drunken Prayer.
On his 7th album, 2025’s Thy Burdens, Geer is credited for creating a completely new type of music: Cosmic Gospel ("a marriage between Otis Redding and The Band“).
Today Drunken Prayer is a stalwart of the burgeoning Asheville music scene.
Two of Geer’s other local bands will also play sets:
Not known for their math skills, the Unholy Trio are reuniting for this show. Featuring members of Reigning Sound, Freakwater and The Krektones, they were a key element at the dawn of Asheville’s current country music renaissance.

Los Gun Show are a group of Land Of Sky all-stars playing the blues as best they can. They are of members of Pleasure Chest, Blind Boy Chocolate & The Milk Sheiks, USXmas, Ouroboros Boys, Reigning Sound and Drunken Prayer

Equal Plates Project
Prompted by the COVID crisis, when area farmers found themselves with fewer restaurants and markets to sell to, the Equal Plates Project began. They purchase directly from small farms at fair prices, transform their quality ingredients into scratch-made meals, and partner with community organizations to share thousands of meals each week with neighbors facing food insecurity.
