Welcome to another in our Backstage episode of Roots Music Rambler. These are short interviews Frank and Falls are able to grab backstage (or just somewhere in person rather than on our virtual, longer-form interview episodes) and catch up briefly.
This week Falls got a chance to catch up with the rocket ship that is becoming Hunter Flynn before a recent show he did in Louisville. Falls met Hunter in February on the set of another podcast: Listen Honey! With Katie Combs and the two planned for Flynn to come on Roots Music Rambler.
But Hunter got busy shortly after! He signed a record deal, hired a full band, jumped in the studio to record his first full-length studio album (due out later this year) and a lot more. He’s released a couple of singles from the new record this summer and even released a pretty fun music video for his single, “Robbing a Bank.”
Falls and Flynn finally caught up after Hunter’s sound check at a recent Louisville show so he could tell his amazing story to Roots Music Rambler. This one, kids, will send chills up your spine. Hunter told us about his dramatic revelation to focus on his art, selling insurance, growing up in Pulaski County, Kentucky and what the rocket ship feeling is really like.
Flynn is a rare breed for a relatively young artist: He’s focused, clear on the vision for his art and music, and extremely talented and affable. No wonder people keep comparing him to Tyler Childers.
