Morgan Christopher Geer, the man behind Drunken Prayer's moody blend of Americana and alt-folk, has the sort of gravelly, lived-in voice that evokes memories of The Band and Tom Waits. On Drunken Prayer's second album, Into The Mission Field, Geer barks and croons his way through a song cycle inspired by garage rock, soul, psychedelia, and the band's folksy roots. It's an eclectic mix, but everything comes together on the title track, which even flirts with a bit of gospel music. - American Songwriter, 2012
