Concert Details

Grammy winner Dom Flemons is a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, producer, actor, music scholar, and historian. He is known as the “American Songster,” and his repertoire covers more than 100 years of early American popular music. He is an expert player on banjo, guitar, harmonica, jug, percussion, quills, fife, and rhythm bones.

Originally from Phoenix, Flemons received a doctor of humane letters degree from his alma mater, Northern Arizona University, in 2022 and was the commencement speaker at the graduation ceremony. He currently lives near Chicago. In 2024, Flemons made history by becoming the first Black artist to win the grand prize for the International Acoustic Music Awards for Traveling Wildfire. He is also the producer and host of the American Songster Radio Show on WSM-AM in Nashville.

“Dom Flemons is one of the most accomplished American folk artists. . . . Few have pumped as much lifeblood into tradition as he has.”

NPR

“Dom Flemons is on a mission to uncover, preserve, and push forward America’s musical past— particularly Black musical traditions.”
