Darin Mahoney
Darin blends his country and bluegrass styles into gentle contemporary instrumental melodies. In 2013, he released a collaboration album with flutist Sherry Finzer, called Transformation, which won Album of the Year from One World Music in the UK. His song Confused, from his solo album In the Grain, was placed in the documentary Absent. GRAMMY® winning guitarist and Windham Hill Records founder Will Ackerman has written of Darins music: Darins stock in trade is melody. The forms are traditional and familiar, but the melodies, heartfelt without exception, are all Darins. The overall impression is of being in place you know well and love deeply, but being suddenly amazed one afternoon that the view is so spectacular. Darin is a luthier and performs and records on his hand-built guitar made of koa wood and cedar. Explore Darins creative world further at www.darinmahoney.net.
Sherry and Darin won the OWM Award for their album Transformation in 2013, and most recently received the award from Zone Music Reporter for Best Acoustic Album 2016 for their release Trialogue, recorded with seven-time GRAMMY Nominee and pan-global percussionist Will Clipman.
Sherry performs on a variety of specialty flutes, including alto, bass and contrabass flutes, and Darin on several of his guitars. They will be performing selections from their award-winning albums Transformation and Trialogue, while sharing their stories about the songs and their life experiences that helped shape their music and careers.
