SUMMARY:Michael Flynn
DESCRIPTION:Michael Flynn is an Americana-adjacent singer/songwriter based in western NC. Though some have likened his style to that of the “Neo-pop” genre. Either way\, his music is appealing in its ability to take you on a journey. One moment you will be chuckling along with a quirky turn of phrase and the next closing your eyes to the somber tones flowing from both piano and Flynn’s vocals. There is no denying Flynn’s talent\, with songs featured on shows like Grey’s Anatomy and Shameless\, and not to mention his numerous awards. Lyrically strong\, intimately beautiful\, and full of varied song craft\, Flynn’s music is playful even when it hurts\, bright when it’s bruising\, and as catchy as it is clever. In short\, his music is like life\, a full experience.

SUMMARY:Lonesome Road Band
DESCRIPTION:The Lonesome Road Band regularly travels as a three piece group\, featuring banjo\, guitar\, and bass. In a nutshell\, the band plays country and folk\, but that wonderfully rustic country that walks you down a dirt road\, with a pleasant breeze tickling your face\, while the grasshoppers chirp. Founded back in 1995\, the band has gone through a few changes in members\, but has never lost its heart and soul – thanks in abundance to its founder Larry Keith. The charming yet stark fervency of The Lonesome Road Band’s music instantly takes audiences back to a time where songs told the world of man’s great love and great sorrows. Huddled around a vintage mic\, the group would be right at home next to the Soggy Bottom Boys in “O Brother Where Art Thou.”
