Red Dirt Artist Jake Flint Passes Away At The Age Of 37, Bringing Tributes From All Over The World
Jake Flint’s exact cause of death hasn’t been made public as of the time of writing. On Saturday, Jake and his wife Brenda exchanged vows, and on Sunday morning, Jake apparently passed suddenly.
Jake was raised in Holdenville, an oilfield boomtown in South Eastern Oklahoma, where he was born in 1985. Due to the fact that his father was a music enthusiast, he grew up listening to songs by musicians like John Denver, James Taylor, and Dire Straits.
A “hefty dose of 90s grunge rock from Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Foo Fighters,” according to the singer’s official website. His father was diagnosed with ALS, a disease that limits muscle movement and causes other problems, and he began playing music as a result.
Jake’s subsequent musical period involved his discovery of composers from the Texas and Oklahoma music scenes. It included Tom Skinner, Bob Childers, Boland, Canada, McClure, and Chris Knight, among countless others. The website states that this is where Jake found himself, his musical inspiration, and began his own singing and songwriting career.
Between Claremore and Owasso, the artist is claimed to have wed Brenda at a rural homestead.
