Jake Flint was a well-known singer-songwriter.
The Hallelujah vocalist was born in Holdenville, South Eastern Oklahoma, in 1985, and subsequently relocated to Tulsa, Oklahoma.

He grew interested in bluegrass music and began following various jam bands as well as Texas and Oklahoma musicians. Bob Childers, McClure, Tom Skinner, Boland, and other songwriters inspired Flint greatly. He used to travel across Oklahoma, Texas, and other states with his band.
His first album, I’m Not Okay, was published in 2016, and he has since released further CDs such as Live and Not OK at Cain’s Ballroom, Jake Flint, and Love and Socially Distanced at the Mercury Lounge. In 2018, he even appeared at the Texas Regional Radio Music Awards’ Future Faces Show.
