Pure Prairie League

Dosey Doe Coffee House presents Pure Prairie League.

Pure Prairie League, sometimes abbreviated PPL, is an American country-rock band whose roots began between 1964 and 1969 in Waverly, Ohio, with Craig Fuller, George Powell, Tom McGrail, and Robin Suskind. In 1970 McGrail named the band after a 19th century temperance union mentioned in the 1939 film Dodge City.

The band has had a long run, active from the 1970s through the late 1980s and was revived in the late 1990s for a time, then again in 2004.

On February 10, 2012 at The Syndicate in Newport, Kentucky, Fuller and George Ed Powell (a frequent guest at their Ohio shows in recent years) took to the stage to join the current PPL lineup of John David Call, Mike Reilly, Rick Schell and Donnie Lee Clark.
