Welcome to the latest post in the Homegrown Plus series, featuring bluegrass quartet The Henhouse Prowlers. After two decades of touring and performing, the Henhouse Prowlers proudly look to the future, expressing their passion for music and humanity. Banjoist Ben Wright and upright bassist Jon Goldfine have been the heart of the band since its inception, while guitarist Chris Dollar and mandolinist Jake Howard (who joined 7 and 5 years ago respectively) bring fresh energy to the band's sound. The Prowlers approach music with a reverence for tradition coupled with willingness to explore beyond the ordinary. In their concert, they apply their trademark four-part harmonies to classic country and bluegrass, as well as modern Americana. In the interview we talk about their music, their history, and their activities with the U.S. State Department and their own nonprofit, Bluegrass Ambassadors, through which they have been able to take American music around the globe.
