Prairie Sharks
Your friendly neighborhood shark-themed, midwest, boogie-woogie, roots rock, surf, blues party band
Prairie Sharks: the only sharks you're likely to run into in the midwest! We love dance floors, rowdy patrons, twangy guitars, and surprises!
What we do
We write new tunes in a retro style, cover lesser known jump blues and boogie tunes, and celebrate surf classics! Every now and then - we set the band loose and head for outer-space, but it always comes back down to earth. Come swimming with us sometime.
Prairie Sharks are a family band!
Who we are
Tim Horger eats Acoustic Guitar and sings.
Frank Horger bites Electric Guitar and sings as well.
Sebastian Kelle licks Electric Bass and provides the odd snarl.
Joe Wachtel digests the drums.
