-Prodigal was a pioneering 1980s Christian rock and new wave band from Cincinnati, Ohio. Formed in 1975 by keyboardist [[Loyd Boldman]], the group's sound ranged from radio-friendly pop to keyboard-driven new wave to pop country. The group members were keyboardist [[Loyd Boldman]], drummer Dave Workman, guitarist Rick Fields and bassist Mike Wilson. Boldman, Workman, and Fields would trade off lead vocalist duties depending on the track. Boldman generally handled the rock-oriented tracks, while Workman and Fields split the more pop- and new wave-focused material. Boldman died in 2014.
