Now in our 15th year, we continue to receive local and national attention and awards, including Smithsonian magazine, video documentaries, and song contests. As lead singer, I was fortunate to be named the “Flint Hills Balladeer” by the State of Kansas for my songwriting, and continue to write new songs celebrating the tallgrass prairie landscape and rural life. With a versatile repertoire of old favorites and regional-themed originals, we offer family-friendly entertainment with a broad appeal to all ages. We are also committed to tailoring performances to fit your audience: i.e. a general show or one with requested topical, historic, or cultural themes. We also enjoy playing for wedding receptions and other social events. Finally, customers say they find us to be affordable, reliable, experienced, and helpful in the planning process. Please keep us in mind- we’d love to bring our energy and music to your event! Annie Wilson, Manager, Tallgrass Express String Band
