G. Flewellyn<\/h2>\n<p>Lubbock singer-songwriter D.G. Flewellyn has earned respect from the city\u2019s working musicians and enjoys an ever-increasing fan base.<\/p>\n<p>Flewellyn has recorded and released four CDs \u2013 Comin\u2019 Home, Nuclear Cookin\u2019, House of Doom, and A Different Point of Blue.<\/p>\n<p>He performs several times a week in local clubs, both as a solo act and as a guest member with other performers. More often than not, Flewellyn shares the spotlight with only his Martin 000 Orchestra acoustic guitar.<\/p>\n<p>D.G. has performed solo and ensemble with a wide range of musicians, including Ian Moore, Lou Ann Barton, Acoustic Alchemy, The Flatlanders, David Halley, and Sonny Curtis. He also has performed for two United States presidents.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kudos<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Acclaimed guitarist John Sprott said Flewellyn\u2019s strongest asset is his voice. \u201cHe has a really finely tuned sense of what is musically artful and germane,\u201d Sprott said. \u201cAs a player, his classical\/flamenco\/folk finger-picking style is unique. I know of no one who does it better.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>An unexpected compliment from musician Lloyd Maines forced Flewellyn to accept: \u201cI have my own sound.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Musician Jesse Ballew said, \u201cI don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever heard an album recorded in Lubbock that sounds as good as D.G.\u2019s \u2018A Different Point of Blue.\u2019 \u201d<\/p>\n<p>Musician Stacy Bridges added, \u201cD.G. is on the top shelf where local solo musicians are concerned. His original music is his calling card. (At his shows), I notice people requesting his original tunes by name and singing along. His CDs are in jukeboxes around town. It\u2019s hard to argue with (that) kind of presence and visibility.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Awards and Honors<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A.S.C.A.P.
