The state of Missouri has plenty of musical artists to be proud of with jazz innovator Charlie Parker from Kansas City and legendary rocker Chuck Berry from St. Louis. The Rainmakers are an original rock band from Kansas City. They came out with a string of hits in the late 1980s and early 1990s in the U.S. and Europe. This bar band still performs. Well-known horror author Stephen King became a fan and quoted their lyrics in two of his novels “The Tommyknockers” and “Gerald’s Game”. The Rainmakers released eight studio albums, two live albums and a compilation album. Among their best songs are “Let My People Go-Go”, “Spend It On Love”, “Snakedance” and “Tornado of Love” among many others.
