Wood Flower originally formed in the summer of 2022 between former guitar student (Wes Johnson) and his teacher from nearly a decade before (Josh Sceurman). They later invited Reading PA native, and long-time friend of Josh's, Michael Beaky to pick the five-string. Wes's high school buddy Gabe Delp joined the outfit on the guitar as well. Wood Flower set out to strongly honor traditional bluegrass music while incorporating both original compositions and modern elements into their unique sound. 

"That's Grass!"

Wood Flower's excellent musicianship quickly won them loyal fans. Only six weeks after their first-ever performance, they opened for the iconic bluegrass band known as The Seldom Scene at The Sellersville Theater in Pennsylvania. Shortly thereafter, Wood Flower was selected as a Phillybluegrass.com “Top 10 Act” twice in 2023, for both their winter and summer charts, the only non-National act to be chosen. 

In April of 2024, Wood Flower performed in front of a nearly sold-out crowd for their debut show at the legendary listening room known as Godfrey Daniels in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Later that year, they also had the opportunity to support the one and only Ricky Skaggs and his band Kentucky Thunder as well as the Nashville-based bluegrass powerhouse known as East Nash Grass.

Since their inception, Wood Flower has made main stage appearances at festivals like The Wind Gap Bluegrass Festival PA, The Podunk Bluegrass Festival CT, and The Basin Bluegrass Festival VT. The band recently released their ten-track debut self-titled studio album consisting of original and traditional bluegrass music!
