Rekindled: Prairie Fire Choir and PaviElle

Prairie Fire Choir and acclaimed vocalist PaviElle French reunite for Rekindled after first sharing a stage at the Cedar Cultural Center in 2019. Award-winning vocalist and composer PaviElle French takes on jazz, soul, and R&B songs from some of the artists we all love including Aretha Franklin, Chaka Khan, Stevie Wonder, and Donny Hathaway, to name a few, backed by some of the most talented musicians in the Twin Cities! Prairie Fire Choir brings its genre-bending style and lush harmonies to the stage, reimagining everything from Queen and Prince to The Cranberries in a cappella arrangements of rock, pop, and original songs.
