Bio

flinders is the musical brainchild of a Galway native, Philip Flynn.

An avid fan of music from youth, 2000 saw him begin to compose on a more serious basis and, that same year, he committed his first works to tape.

A product of both grunge and brit-pop, and influenced by aspects of each, together with acoustic-guitar based music with integrity, (Elliot Smith, Iron and Wine), and more recent avant garde music (The Notwist, Radiohead), he looks to balance the use of technology, distortion and melody.

Playing a mix of acoustic and electric guitars and anxious to distance himself from the singer/songwriter ‘curse’, 2005 saw him begin to experiment with his own unique style of music.

Using his own particular song-writing skill to maximum advantage, he blends looped vocals and guitar parts, pulsating rhythms, hypnotic baselines and a soaring lead vocal line to create a unique sound.

Following this, he honed his ability as a live performer with a slew of live performances in Ireland. Performing his work live has proved to be a unique challange to the musician himself, and requires all of the usual characteristics of a live performance together with pin-point timing and accurate harminisation.

The intention of flinders is ensure the music stays just the right side of experimental, thus allowing it to be as accessible as possible to the public.

April 2007 saw flinders entering the studio and recording his Debut E.P, The Ground Floor. Recorded, produced, mixed and mastered over four days with Les Keye, it was released to the general public on May 11th 2007.

The E.P is available in independent record stores in Ireland (Road Records) and Digitally all over the world on I-Tunes and Indiestore.com

The remainder of 2007 sees flinders promote The Ground Floor E.P with live performances and radio appearances as well as demoing songs for his debut album, scheduled for self-release in January 2008.
