Deni Bonet and Chris Flynn are a New York-based Americana, folk-rock duo whose blend of voices, virtuoso violin, guitar, and humor have entertained and captivated audiences from Carnegie Hall to Mountain Stage to the White House for President Obama.
“The whole is greater than the sum of the parts”. So it is with Deni Bonet & Chris Flynn. As individual artists, they have more than made their mark in music. As a duo, they have created something extra, engaging and extremely entertaining. Bonet’s voice and violin, and Flynn’s guitar and voice, have echoed through the United Nations and the White House, Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Mountain Stage and the Great Wall of China! (Really!) They have shared stages with REM, Cyndi Lauper, Richard Thompson, Warren Zevon, Sarah McLachlan, Alan Toussaint, and many others.
Deni Bonet & Chris Flynn’s audiences have ranged from festivalgoers, to Presidents. They’ve performed their original music as soloists with several full symphony orchestras. For the last seven years, they have melded that skill, experience and musicality on stages across Europe and America, from festivals to house concerts, libraries to radio stations. Their lively and humorous shows are full of self-penned songs and instrumentals, and the warm banter of two people completely at one on the stage. The new album, ‘Off The Record’ is due out in 2025.
Americana Spirit, Modern Energy – Voices, Violin & Guitar in Harmony
