Kirk Fleta

“Fleta’s Spanish roots combine with Delta blues, driving percussive at times and gently melodic at others he intertwines the rich tone of his voice with his unique finger style guitar playing to lay down his insightful lyrics with soul. His versatility has allowed him to share the stage with Knoxville’s most well known artists as well as, alongside nationally recognized names like Goose Creek Symphony, the Wooten Brothers, Shawn Mullins, and Marc Brousard. That howling you may hear at nighttime in the Smokies, that isn’t a coyote or some other mountain critter — it’s Kirk Fleta singing the blues.”
