2015 - Prospect Hill finds Flemons digging deeply into ragtime, Piedmont blues, spirituals, southern folk music, string band music, jug band music, fife and drum music, and ballads idioms with showmanship and humor, reinterpreting the music to suit 21st century audiences. The instrumentation is varied and authentic, with instruments that are era-appropriate for the style of song. This new solo piece is a joy to hear and a pleasure to truly pay attention to and analyze. “A mix of traditional and original songs that explore different moods and strains of Americana from both the head and the heart.” -Boston Globe
