WHAT IT IS: 22-year-old Oklahoma native Wyatt Flores is redefining the cultural landscape. Now firmly rooted in Nashville, the Mexican American artist crafts narratives with authenticity and individuality while drawing from country, rock, folk, pop and bluegrass. Flores tapped a vein with a string of singles that have generated 130m+ streams. While conducting a headline tour across the U.S., Flores is gearing up to release his sophomore EP, Life Lessons.
