Dom Flemons is a US folk and rootsy musician, singer, and songwriter hailing from Phoenix, Arizona. With a passion for Americana, folk, banjo, and jug band music, Dom's unique style captivates audiences worldwide. His talent shines through in his soulful performances and heartfelt lyrics.
As a native of Phoenix, Arizona, Dom has been immersed in the rich musical heritage of the region from an early age. He draws inspiration from the diverse cultures that have shaped American music throughout history.
With his bent toward Americana and folk genres, Dom brings a fresh perspective to traditional sounds. His mastery of the banjo and ability to transport listeners back to simpler times make him a true standout in today's music scene.

In 1987, following the death of Moses Asch, owner of Folkways Records, the Smithsonian Institution acquired from his estate the rights, papers, and masters for Folkways Records. This was done with the Smithsonian's promise to keep all of the 2168 *Folkways* titles in print, which they continue to do to this day under the *Smithsonian Folkways* banner.

Under their ownership, *Smithsonian Folkways* has become a leading label in preserving and promoting traditional music from around the world. With a vast catalog that spans various genres including folk, blues, jazz, world music and spoken word recordings. Their commitment to keeping these important cultural artifacts accessible is commendable.

With Label Code: LC 9628 / LC 09628 and copyright credits given to [l270847], *Smithsonian Folkways* stands as a testament to their dedication in preserving musical heritage for generations to come.

Dom Flemons has built a reputation on presenting 100 years of American roots music, but now, with Traveling Wildfire, his own songwriting prowess comes into the spotlight. Carefully selected from his personal repertoire, these original songs reveal his love of country, western, blues, Americana, bluegrass and folk music as they tell of true love, family legacy, survival, time travel, and the juxtaposition between light and dark. Traveling Wildfire weaves through the themes of hope and humor as it rises above the hard times with strength and lightheartedness.
