Hailing from the small town of Ball Ground, Georgia, and now pursuing a bachelor's degree in songwriting at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee, Elliott Prather is a young independent country singer-songwriter sharing his love of music with crowds of fans and new faces most weekends. 
 At an early age, Prather realized that "life's too short to not make good music." 
 He goes into every songwriting session, every performance with this thought in mind. 
 Prather began playing gigs around his hometown at the age of 17, learning the ins and outs of being a "professional jukebox." It wouldn't be until two years later when he would finally get the chance to share his original songs with a larger audience with the release of his first album on May 15, 2020. 
rather’s music is propelled by a neo-traditional country-rock production and insightful lyrics covering a variety of topics including his back and forth relationship with music, thoughtful storytelling, and his desire to cherish the little things in life. 
 These themes are evident in songs like "Music Man," "Hard Work," and "While I Still Can." 
 Even in an intimate, acoustic setting, Prather's message still powers through with his passion and love for performing and songwriting. 
 "I just want to make and play good music, and I want to invite people to join me."
