Flatpick Hotel is a guitar passion project of Ian Ly and Owen Ragland, formed out of a mutual love for the bluegrass flat-picked guitar discovered over late nights jamming. Ly and Ragland met at California Bluegrass Association’s Father’s Day Bluegrass Festival and became quick friends, bonding over their love for picking fiddle tunes on the guitar. Together, the duo is truly an experiment in excellent players pushing each other to the boundaries of creativity with their instrument.
Strawberrians will know Ly from Crying Uncle Bluegrass Band and Ragland from Honey Run, two beloved bands with deep connections to the Northern California bluegrass music scene.
Don’t miss Flatpick Hotel on the Strawberry Main Stage Saturday, May 23rd. Listen & learn more here!
