Born and raised in Oklahoma, the Mexican-American artist established himself as one of country music’s most vital voices with the release of three EPs, including Half Life, released in 2023 to widespread critical attention. Coming to Anita's Theatre, Tuesday 17 February.
The New York Times praised, “Wyatt Flores…Has a Superpower: Tapping Emotions,” while Holler proclaimed, “Flores at his gloriously life-affirming, existential best.”
In October 2024 he released his eagerly anticipated full-length debut album, Welcome To The Plains (Island Records). Produced by Beau Bedford (Orville Peck, Shane Smith & The Saints) Welcome To The Plains details Flores’ journey as he balances the struggle of leaving his hometown of Stillwater, Oklahoma with the highs and lows of life on the road. Across 14 tracks Flores delivers the grounded and sincere storytelling he’s celebrated for, seamlessly blending traditional country and folk sounds.
