Danny Flowers
Danny Flowers may be best known for having penned the classic, “Tulsa Time” (Don Williams, Eric Clapton), or as author of such soulful cuts as, “Before Believing” (title cut for Emmylou Harris’s Pieces Of The Sky) and “Gulf Coast Highway” (Nanci Griffith, Emmylou Harris and Willie Nelson, Evangeline), among others, but as a solo artist, his bluesy blend of raw emotion combined with a heartfelt yearning will speak to your very soul.
Danny’s instrumentality has also earned him a high level of notoriety in the industry. Having paid his dues on the road with artists such as Don Williams, Nanci Griffith, Vince Gill, Marshall Chapman, Dobie Gray and Russell Smith, his debut release: MCA Records’ The Scratch Band Featuring Danny Flowers, earned him a Country Music Awards (CMA) nomination. Danny is currently touring in support of his latest release, Forbidden Fruits and Vegetables. Flowers’ writing credits span several genres and his flexibility as a guitarist and wordsmith is well-known. He penned “Tulsa Time” for Eric Clapton, which Don Williams also cut. Williams then had hits with “Back In My Younger Days,” “Senorita,” and “To Be Your Man.” Emmylou Harris recorded “Before Believing” as the title cut for her Pieces Of The Sky album. “Gulf Coast Highway” was recorded by Emmylou and Willie Nelson as well as by Nanci Griffith and Evangeline. With all this under his belt, Flowers still manages to maintain the poise and humility of a Zen master while tossing off riffs with incredible taste and feeling. His current band, Danny Flowers and the Arrangements, is a tightly-knit rock outfit that is reminiscent of Ry Cooder’s gospel-like grooves with the slide guitar virtuosity and delicate upper-register vocal vibratos of David Lindley. His live performances are throw-down rock n’ roll parties that shouldn’t be missed. With a comfortable command of his band’s dynamics, he can whip the music into a frenzy with a searing slide solo only to slam it down into a hushed R&B shuffle.
