SUMMARY:Dom Flemons At The OK Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Dom Flemons is the "American Songster\," pulling from traditions of old-time folk music to create new sounds. Having performed music professionally since 2005\, he has played live for over one million people just within the past three years. As part of the Carolina Chocolate Drops\, which he co-founded with Rhiannon Giddens and Justin Robinson\, he has played at a variety of festivals spanning from the Newport Folk Festival to Bonnaroo\, in addition to renowned venues such as the Grand Ole Opry.\n\nRaised in Phoenix\, Arizona\, Dom's involvement with music began by playing percussion in his high school band. After picking up the guitar and harmonica as a teenager\, he began to play in local coffee houses and became a regular performer on the Arizona folk music scene. Dom wrote his own songs and produced 25 albums of singer-songwriters and slam poets in the Phoenix area\, including six albums of his own\, during this time. He took a brief break from playing music in order to pursue slam poetry (he majored in English at Northern Arizona University) and performed in two national poetry slams in 2002 and 2003. Aside from exploring slam poetry\, he spent his early adulthood listening to records and discovering a love of folk music\, blues\, jazz\, jug band music\, country music and '50s rock 'n' roll. Dom became interested in folk musicians such as Phil Ochs\, Dave Van Ronk and Mike Seeger\, as well as musicians such as Mississippi John Hurt\, Howlin' Wolf\, Hank Williams\, Chuck Berry and Carl Perkins. After stepping away from the slam poetry scene\, he rekindled his interest in music\, this time focusing on the old-time blues music of the pre-WWII era.
