about

Born in rural Indiana shortly after his family moved “west” from southern Virginia to start a livestock feed store, Flory’s music is suffused with the elements of his childhood – days spent in the fields, church sings, gravel roads, and genuine mule drawn molasses. Flory’s sound evokes voices not much heard on radio airwaves, a stew of early country, gospel, and the best of classic Nashville. Even his guitar playing captures the rhythmic tumble of clawhammer banjo and Appalachian fiddle (on both of which he’s adept), and his vocal phrasing carries inflections from the Carter Family to Eddie Cochran to Hank Williams (I and III).

“Flory comes from the same stock as all those great rough & tumble
songwriters that real music fans seek out. He’s a hard core troubadour
who’s got a story to tell, and you’d be wise to listen.”
-Trevor McSpadden, The Hoyle Brothers
