The Scoop
The Tree of Forgiveness Band In December of 2021, a group of all-star musicians from North Carolina got together to perform the music of John Prine in Elkin, NC. The show was supposed to be a one-off night sponsored by The Reeves Theater and Cafe, but the musicians quickly realized there was a very special and unique ‘magic’ happening on stage that evening. Since then, The Tree of Forgiveness Band has performed in venues throughout NC and VA, adding the Rooster Walk Festival in May 2023 and Tennessee’s Bluegrass Caverns at Cave Fest in October 2023. The Tree of Forgiveness Band - A John Prine Tribute performs music that spans the life and career of Mr. John Prine. From his first album in 1971, John Prine, up to his final 2018 release, The Tree of Forgiveness, the band digs into both well-known classics such as “Illegal Smile,” “Sam Stone,” “Angel From Montgomery” and “Grandpa Was A Carpenter” to some of his ‘deep cuts’ such as “Bruised Orange” and “Egg & Daughter Nite.”
