Railroad Square Music Festival is a free gathering held annually in downtown Santa Rosa. Our goal is to fill our stages with an increasingly diverse range of regional performers, creating an unforgettable day of music for visitors and locals alike.
With the pandemic making a live event impossible in 2021, we have teamed up with legendary local recording studio Prairie Sun Recording to create an original compilation of North Bay performers. Take a listen below!
If you like what you hear, please consider making a donation and downloading the album. All money raised will help us gear up for our next live festival in 2022.
This is a 100% volunteer-run project. Thank you to all the artists, Prairie Sun, and the RSMF team.
We all hope you dig this album, find a new favorite North Bay act, and keep supporting local music!
Prairie Sun Recording
Now in its fourth decade of operation, the studio is known as a residential recording facility with a technical bent toward vintage analog-recording equipment as well as state-of-the-art digital technology. Van Morrison, Greg Allman, Kate Wolf, Mickey Hart, Primus, Faith No More, the Melvins, Ramblin’ Jack Eliot, and surf music creator Dick Dale all have recorded at Prairie Sun or used its post-production facilities. Producer and engineer Steve Albini (Nirvana, Pixies, Led Zeppelin) has done work at PSR, as has Sonoma County artist Tom Waits, whose Bone Machine album, winner of the 1992 Grammy for Best Alternative release, was co-produced by Waits and his wife, Kathleen Brennan, entirely at Prairie Sun.
