Acoustic guitar and mandolin player Flynn Cohen makes original music that’s both experimental and traditional. Drawing from a range of techniques and influences, including flatpicking, strumming, Irish, and old-time music, Cohen pushes against convention with a mastery of many styles. When he’s not playing solo, Cohen tours with award-winning folk band Low Lily, and Irish button accordion legend John Whelan. Fiddler Natalie Padilla joins Cohen in the WTJU studio for a set of instrumentals and folk songs.
