Widely cited as one of the most influential songwriters of his generation, John Prine was known for humorous lyrics about love, life, and current events, as well as serious songs with social commentary and songs that recollect sometimes melancholy tales from his life. According to Nobel laureate songwriter Bob Dylan, "Prine's stuff is pure Proustian existentialism.  Midwestern mindtrips to the nth degree. And he writes beautiful songs. . . . All that stuff about 'Sam Stone', the soldier junkie daddy, and 'Donald and Lydia', where people make love from ten miles away. Nobody but Prine could write like that." In 2020, Prine received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. Illegal Smile play tribute to the great man and with members of the band that have played for many years as well as played for the likes of Van Morrison and also are fans of John Prine, you know that they will give the great man a proper tribute.
