About.com's Kathy Coleman writes:
"Take two guys with some impressive talent, give them a chance to stretch their skills as singers, pickers, and songwriters...These two, Stephen Flatt and Shane Alvis, are boys to watch.
It's hard to believe that boys as young as these are can write the depth of feeling in lyrics such as those in "Fallen Rain" or "Calling of the Crows": "Life's a picture book. You turn the page before you look. It's just a mountain we all must climb. I take the road less traveled, and the mysteries seem to unravel. It takes a little patience and some time." The rest of the disc is... "

Nashville Music Guide Pub. July 06
Album: Fields Of Fire
Artist: Flatt & Alvis
"These boys offer contemporary country music with a definite Southern Rock influence. Their harmonies are stand-out as well as their songwriting abilities, ten of the album's twelve tunes were penned by Flatt with "Rollin' Down The Highway" co-written with Alvis. Excellently produced by Dustin Michael for the independent Nashville Noir label, the CD showcases talent that should be commercially viable and headed for stardom. You'll want to own this one, so look for it at your favorite record store."

BIO
Stephen Flatt, great-nephew of Country Music's own esteemed Lester Flatt (Flatt & Scruggs and the Foggy Mountain Boys), began composing Country and Americana music in his early teens. Through the insight and support of his own family and their rich musical heritage, the young songwriter quickly grasped the concept of utilizing tightly knit harmonies and perceptive lyrics to portray his own stories and ideas. During his school years in Tennessee, Flatt was introduced to vocalist and writer Shane Alvis. The two immediately found common ground, both in youthful experience and unrestrained talent; the duo began honing their vocal harmonies into a flawless weave by focusing on Alvis' effortlessly precise southern gospel choir voice. This fiery initial union would eventually lead them onto the world's stage. By the time young Stephen Flatt and Shane Alvis entered college, the two had collectively written an entire catalogue of original music and were regularly performing in front of thousands of captivated and awestruck listeners; the duo promptly collected a vast and dedicated following of friends and fans alike.
The harmony of Flatt & Alvis' music radiates with the soulful presence of America's youth and encompasses a sound and charisma not witnessed in decades. The duo similarly combine the lyrical prowess and soul of artists such as John Mellencamp and Robert Plant, with the skillfully refined harmonies of Simon and Garfunkel and The Louvin Brothers; all of this enveloped within two tall and handsome young men poised as the prodigy of a distinguished era in American Music.
