Get in the zone with Prairiewolf

This episode features an excerpt an exclusive interview with Boulder County-based cosmic Americana group Prairiewolf.

Caribou Current editor Jezy Gray sat down with Jeremy Erwin, Tyler Wilcox and Stefan Beck to chat about their latest album Zone Poems, out July 17. Last year the group went on tour around Colorado and got into some pretty funky head spaces on stage. They didn't know it yet, but they were recording their next record in real time.

Listen in to go on that journey with them.

You can check out their upcoming show schedule here: prairiewolfmusic.com/home#shows
