Join the Matt Flinner Trio for a night of some of the best modern string band music you're likely to hear, plus music so fresh it's not even a day old!
“Flinner continues his reign as perhaps the most exciting and creative mandolin player on the scene today.”—Jazz Times
“(Flinner) blurs the lines between jazz and bluegrass, traditional and avant-garde.”—Associated Press
Multi-instrumentalist Matt Flinner has made a career out of playing acoustic music in new ways. Starting out as a banjo prodigy who was playing bluegrass festivals before he entered his teens, Flinner later took up the mandolin, won the National Banjo Contest at Winfield Kansas in 1990, and took the mandolin award there the following year. Since then, he has become recognized as one of the premiere mandolinists as well as one of the finest new acoustic/roots music composers today. He has toured and recorded with a wide variety of bluegrass, new acoustic, classical and jazz artists, including Tim O’Brien, Frank Vignola, Steve Martin, Darrell Scott, the Modern Mandolin Quartet, Dave Douglas, Leftover Salmon, Alison Brown, The Ying Quartet, Tony Trischka, Darol Anger, and the Nashville Chamber Orchestra.
