Pinflap has been writing music for 28 years and performing in a variety of bands before embarking on a solo career. Best known for playing bass and later acoustic rhythm for the Cadillac Cowboys from 1991-97. More recently Pinflap has been carving out a successful solo career as a singer/songwriter and an acoustic guitarist.
Pinflap credits Lindsey Buckingham, James Taylor and Ian Anderson, as musicians who inspired his career. Having transitioned from Bass to Acoustic Pinflap never uses a guitar pick. His music style is hauntingly beautiful and simplistic but yet it is complex if not impossible to emulate.
He has a number of internationally acclaimed songs available on itunes including The Branch a favourite amongst internet radio audiences. ‘The Branch was inspired by singer/songwriter Michelle Branch’ said Pinflap. On release of the single Michelle Branch sent a message to Pinflap ‘‘ Wow! I don’t think I’ve ever had anyone write a song for me. Thank you! Sounds great’
Pinflap 2 his self titled CD is still available at all major e-retailers.
Supporting artist for Pinflap at Dunn Bros will be Buck Morgan who was inspired by John Prine, Kris Kristofferson and Bruce Springsteen and is drawn to singers/songwriters who tell a story, share an adventure and introduce you to a character.
‘I’d like to write a pop song some day. I’m still on my first hundred songs, and the songs are all so close to me. They’re literally family.’ Said Morgan.
President of Dallas Songwriters Assoc, Morgan always been a writer, first in newspapers, and later in public relations and is respected amongst his peers for his support of local musicians.
