SUMMARY:Musical Vanguards at the Dairy Presents the Matt Flinner Trio and Martin Gilmore
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\nMatt Flinner (mandolin)\, Ross Martin (guitar) and Eric Thorin first formed the Matt Flinner Trio in 2006\, and they have become known as an adventurous group that often writes music on the day of any given show\, and performs it that same night. Their willingness to take risks and explore the boundaries of what a bluegrass trio can do\, combined with their love of traditional mountain music of Appalachia\, creates a unique sound in the world of modern bluegrass that shows touches of old-time\, jazz and chamber music. Their new CD on Compass Records\, “Traveling Roots\,” showcases not only their virtuosity\, but their compositional sensibility as well. \n“Flinner continues his reign as perhaps the most exciting and creative mandolin player on the scene today.”—Jazz Times \n“(Flinner) blurs the lines between jazz and bluegrass\, traditional and avant-garde.”—Associated Press \n“Flinner provides the next logical evolutionary step to David Grisman’s unique ‘Dawg’ style\, and does it with a nod to the past and a vision of the future.”—Bluegrass Now \nOpening the show is Martin Gilmore\, singer\, songwriter\, and multi-instrumentalist from Denver\, Colorado. His music bridges traditional folk\, bluegrass\, and original compositions. His rich vocals and masterful guitar playing bring both authenticity and innovation to every song he performs. With a deep respect for musical traditions and a penchant for creative storytelling\, Gilmore has built a reputation as a compelling artist in the American roots music scene.\n• 2025 Kerrville New Folk Winner\n• 2024 Telluride Troubadour\n• 2024 Rocky Mtn Folks Showcase

After his return to Northern Alberta\, Canada\, he then spent five years designing\, building\, and practicing in a remote strawbale cabin. The musical result was multilayered\, detailed\, meditative\, and harmonious. “I wanted to play the whole piano at once\,” says Carson\, “in the same way that a single breeze can cause the entire forest to dance and tremble in unison.” (performing on Sept 20-21 only) \nOur Mission\nThe Blind Cafe inspires positive social change by fostering connection and compassion through darkness-based experiences\, encouraging participants to engage beyond visual conditioning and social norms. \nOur Story\nFounded in 2010 by Rosh\, inspired by a Reykjavik “cafe in the dark\,” The Blind Cafe Experience has evolved into an internationally touring pop-up event.
