Who is Tommy Graven?
Musician / Producer / Instructor
Mesmerizing, transcendent, stirring – the music of Tommy Graven captures the sound, spirit, and soul of the natural world around us. A 20-year multi-instrumentalist and songwriter, Tommy was born and raised in Portland, Oregon. The winner of a Global Music Award and “Native American Flutist of the Year” at the NASFA Awards, Tommy is considered by many to be an up and coming artist to watch in the Native American flute genre. Now a resident of Medford, Oregon, Graven spends his time teaching both flute and guitar when not performing area shows, regional festivals, or on behalf of Breedlove Guitars, Shubb Capos, Myers Pickups, Rising Moon Flutes and Singing Tree Flutes.
To witness a Tommy Graven composition is to feel the wind dance across your skin, smell the pines overhead, taste the rain, and breathe in the solace only a rejuvenating Pacific Norwest storm can conjure. With songs like “Ashland” and “Thunder Rolling Down the Mountain,” prepare yourself for an intensely moving, deeply connective experience.
