APPALACHIAN SOUL MuSIC
Hunter Flynn is a native to the Bluegrass state, born and raised in Pulaski county, Kentucky. Flynn’s first public performance came in early 2022. Since then, the 28 year old singer/songwriter has gained national recognition as one of Appalachia’s most promising young artists. In an area that has no shortage of talent, it is Flynn’s soul-shattering vocal ability and veracious songwriting that makes him unique and leaves the listener with no doubt to whether or not he believes the songs he is singing. Flynn has now shared stages with the likes of Zach Top, Megan Moroney, Josh Meloy, and more. The sky is the limit for this young artist who refers to his style of music as “Appalachian Soul”
A Second Chance at Life
“This whole thing was jump started by a near death experience when I flipped my old ‘99 4Runner 3 times across all three lanes of traffic on i75 in the summer of 2021. It forced me to realize that our time here is short and precious, and that I didn’t want to waste another second of the time I had left doing something I didn’t love. I ended up quitting my day job soon after and started doing commissioned charcoal portraits to make ends meet. In my free time I started going to open mics, and eventually worked up enough nerve to sing some of the songs I'd wrote. I got offered my first gig in February of 2022 and after that I knew that I’d found what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.”
Looking Ahead
“I want to leave something behind that I am proud of. I want to see the corners of the world. To laugh, cry, and love with every fiber of my being. I can only hope, when it‘s all said and done, that my songs reflect that.”
