Forrest McCurren and Margaret McCurren

John Prine is the influence Forrest McCurren names first, and the Jefferson City, Missouri, songwriter works in that vein, with rough-edged ballads about working people and long stretches on the road. He was one of 12 musicians cast in The Road, the CBS competition series from Taylor Sheridan, Blake Shelton and Keith Urban, and sang "Small Prayers, Big Blessings" on its premiere; that is also the title of his latest album, which followed the debut Oh Me, Oh My. His wife, Margaret McCurren, joins him on fiddle. The Fogartyville date is one stop on the couple's Florida swing.
