On Sunday, Flint’s manager Brenda Cline shared the tragic news on her social media account:
With a broken heart and in deep grief I must announce that Jake Flint has tragically passed away. I’ve tried several times today to make a post, but you can’t comment on what you can’t process. The photo below is when Jake and I excitedly signed our artist management contract. That was the beginning of a wonderful friendship and partnership. Jake was even more than that to me, I loved him much like a son. The funniest, most hilarious, hardest working, dedicated artist I have ever worked with in my career. We were just about to embark on some business together after he and Brenda got married- which was yesterday. Yes-yesterday. Jake has a million friends and I’m not sure how everyone will cope with this tragic loss. We need prayers- it’s all so surreal. Please please pray for his new wife Brenda, Jake’s precious mother, his sister and the rest of his family and friends. This is going to be incredibly difficult for so many. We love you Jake and in our hearts forever.
Flint’s new wife, Brenda Wilson, shared a video from their wedding day with the caption, “I don’t understand.”

We are greatly saddened to hear about Red Dirt Country Artist @JakeFlintMusic passing this weekend..
Deeply influenced by Hank Williams, he never lost his twang. A significant loss for the Texahoma music scene, and all traditional country fans..https://t.co/0hf7qnlpbm— StoneColdCountry (@StoneColdCtry) November 28, 2022
