About the Artists

Wyatt Flores
Acclaimed singer, songwriter and musician Wyatt Flores is in the midst of a breakout year following the release of his full-length debut album, Welcome to the Plains, this past fall (Island Records). With the record, produced by Beau Bedford (Orville Peck, Shane Smith & The Saints), Flores continues to gain widespread attention, having appeared on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” NPR Music’s “Tiny Desk Concert” series and “CBS Saturday Morning,” while the album landed on several “Best of 2024” lists such as NPR, Rolling Stone and more. Known for his electric concerts, Flores recently released his first live album, Live At Cain’s Ballroom, and will continue to tour through this summer with his “Welcome Back to the Plains” headline tour as well as several festival dates across the country. Born and raised in Oklahoma, the Mexican-American artist has established himself as one of country music’s most vital voices. In the past year, he’s been recognized as one of Rolling Stone’s 25 “Future of Music” artists, was nominated for Emerging Act of the Year at the 2024 Americana Awards, was selected as Amazon’s Breakthrough Artist of the Year, included in Spotify’s Hot Country Class of 2024 and CMT’s Listen Up class and made his Grand Ole Opry debut. Additionally, Flores has garnered over 325 million streams to date and had his song “Before I Do” with Jake Kohn featured on the soundtrack for the Twisters movie.

The Brudi Brothers
They are a dynamic Americana band hailing from Seattle, Washington. Often recognized as the city's favorite buskers and street poets, they are known for their raucous performances and distinctive old-world soul that stands out in modern music. They gained rapid popularity worldwide when a live clip of their latest single, "Me More Cowboy Than You," went viral, with over 10 million views cumulatively and quickly rising. Comprising three brothers, Johannes, Conrad, and George, the boys have an inimitable musical and performance dynamic replete with wit and humor. They are all multi-instrumentalists and have been playing together since they were kids. They have traveled the world together, their musical commentary drawing from adventures hitchhiking through Europe, living on sailboats, and performing for the Queen of the Netherlands to create their unusually hypnotic sound. Listeners who discovered the band via social media virality have eagerly taken to their 2020 album, See You Soon. Recorded on a houseboat in Amsterdam with a sound engineer paid in beer and tobacco, the project encapsulates a thoughtful and intimate slice of life immediately preceding the COVID-19 pandemic. They traverse genres with poignant and vibrant lyrics, understated instrumentation, and playful harmonies.
