🎄Christmas Tour 2024 🎄 Ludington, MI - November 23rd St. Louis, MO - December 4th Dayton, OH - December 7th Charlotte, NC - December 8th Santa Barbara, CA - December 12th Arlington, TX - December 14th Branson, MO - Tuesdays and Thursdays at 2 PM from November 5th to January 4th ----------------------- Emmett and Katie came up with such a beautiful arrangement of “Down to the River to Pray,“ a traditional gospel song that Alison Krauss famously recorded for the 2000 movie “O Brother, Where Art Thou?“. The fun interlude at 1:45 was Katie's idea. We try to match our songs to locations and it can take a little while for the song, venue, and lead singer to all come together at the same time! Sometimes we also have to wait for the leaves to return to the Ozarks, the heavy rains to stop, or Julianne to come back from college. ►Buy or stream the album ►More of the trio: Be Thou My Vision Tulsa Time Wade in the Water ►Photo album: Filming day Katie's river baptism Julianne's baptism - a photo series! ----------------------- ►Useful links: YouTube About page Most asked questions Join our Patreon community Subscribe to our channel Sign up to our email list Get It Mama Fan Club Show and tour dates Buy or stream our music ►Social media: Instagram Facebook Twitter Band members Go behind the scenes with @ThePetersenFamily ►This video: Vocals: @katiepetersen Vocals: @EllenHaygood Vocals: @JuliannePetersen Dobro: Emmett Franz Bass: Karen Petersen Guitar: @mattpetersen4000 Key moments: 0:01 dobro 0:06 Katie 0:40 Ellen 0:55 rhythm guitar 1:14 Julianne 1:29 sisters 1:35 mother on bass 3:11 outro Location: The Ozark Mill at Finley Farms The Finley River is such a key part of the water mill's history and its new life as a dining destination.
