1. Backstory:
Rural Woman is an all-female folk-rock band that was formed in the heartland of America during a chance meeting at a local county fair. Each member, stemming from different parts of rural America, came together with a shared love for storytelling and old-time folk music. Hailing from Idaho, Texas, Kentucky, and Wisconsin, the members found a common rhythm in their diverse roots and experiences, making their music a unique blend of cultural wisdom and down-to-earth vibes.
Their music is deeply influenced by their lives – farming, family, love, loss, and the simple pleasures of rural living. Rural Woman seeks to bring a slice of Americana life to their listeners, transporting them to the quiet fields, the hard-working farms, and the robust communities that make up the heartland of America.

4. Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
In the rolling fields of golden grain,
Beneath the blessing of the summer rain,
We find our rhythm in the heartland’s beat,
With soil beneath our feet.
(Chorus)
Under the harvest moon, we sing our tune,
An old-time melody, a rural woman’s boon,
With the strum of guitars, under the shining stars,
We sing our harvest moon lullaby.
(Verse 2)
From dawn till dusk, we work the land,
With our hearts, and our calloused hands,
But when night falls, we wear our crown,
In our love, our home, our town.
(Chorus)
Under the harvest moon, we sing our tune,
A tale of love and grace, under the wide-open space,
With the twang of banjos, in the soft moon’s glow,
We sing our harvest moon lullaby.
(Bridge)
In the quiet night, under the soft moonlight,
We hum the truths of the farming life,
The strength in our hearts, the love in our souls,
In our music, our story unfolds.
(Chorus)
Under the harvest moon, we sing our tune,
With the whispering wind, our voices are tuned,
With the beat of the drums, in the still night’s hum,
We sing our harvest moon lullaby.
(Outro)
Beneath the open sky, with a lullaby,
We are rural women, with our heads held high,
With a song in our hearts, as the day departs,
We bid you goodnight, with our harvest moon lullaby.
