Hunter Flynn is a Kentucky-born singer-songwriter and visual artist whose work resonates with emotional honesty and a deep connection to Appalachian culture. Raised in Pulaski County, Flynn’s path to music and art wasn’t a straight line—it was forged through adversity and personal transformation. In early 2022, after surviving a life-altering car accident, he decided to fully embrace his creative passions, launching a music career rooted in authenticity, vulnerability, and soul.

Drawing inspiration from the landscapes and stories of Appalachia, Flynn blends elements of folk, country, soul, and gospel into a genre-defying sound he calls Appalachian Soul Music. His lyrics, often reflective and raw, tell stories of pain, redemption, resilience, and identity—underscored by his powerful vocals and minimalist arrangements. These qualities are showcased in his debut EP, Appalachian Soul, released in May 2023, which quickly gained traction for its emotional depth and stripped-back sincerity.

Flynn has performed at prominent venues and festivals throughout the United States and Europe, including the prestigious Master Musicians Festival in Somerset, Kentucky, where he was honored as the Featured Artist in 2023. His growing influence in the Kentucky music community was further recognized in 2025 when he was named the Artist in Residence at the Kentucky Music Hall of Fame—a rare honor that reflects his cultural impact and artistic integrity.

In addition to music, Hunter Flynn is an accomplished visual artist, known for his evocative charcoal portraits that explore themes of memory, loss, and the human condition. His dual talents in music and art often intersect, as he uses both mediums to explore the complexities of identity and healing in post industrial Appalachia.

Hunter has shared stages with notable acts such as Zach Top, Wyatt Flores, Jamie Johnson, Larry Fleet, Jackson Dean, and many others, yet remains committed to uplifting emerging voices and fostering a sense of community within the Appalachian arts scene. He often collaborates with other local musicians, writers, and visual arts, further cementing his role not just as a performer, but as a cultural connector and advocate.

For Hunter Flynn, music and art aren’t just forms of expression—they're tools for survival, connection, and transformation. His work continues to inspire audiences across generations, offering a voice to those who often go unheard.

Raised in the foothills of the North Georgia mountains, Peytan Porter writes songs that feel both grounded and untamed. Blending alt-country soul with indie-pop shimmer, the Dawsonville native has built a sound around sharp storytelling, curiosity, and a refusal to stay in one lane.

Now fully independent, Peytan is stepping into her most creatively free chapter yet. A free spirit both on and off stage, she spends much of her time living and traveling in an RV—collecting places, people, and stories along the way. That same sense of movement runs through her music: earthy and breezy, rooted in where she comes from but always willing to wander somewhere new.

That freedom is finding its audience. Her latest single, “Always Colorado,” went viral before she had even finished writing it, turning a work-in-progress into an organic moment with listeners. Since its release, the song has continued to travel, earning support from artists including Ella Langley and John Mayer and becoming an early defining moment of her independent era. The song generated more than 1.7 million social views before its release alone.

Peytan has toured with artists including Willie Nelson, Tim McGraw, Elle King, Hailey Whitters, and more, sold out shows of her own, and made multiple appearances at the Grand Ole Opry. But whether she’s onstage or somewhere down the road in her RV, Peytan is following the same instinct: stay curious, chase what feels alive, and make music that feels free.

Catch her if you can.
