Eric Heideman, Brian Wolff, Buenos Diaz

No one taught me to play. I just started when I was a kid. I’ve learned from so many. From local Houston blues man Tony Vega who invited me onstage as an aspiring 18 yr old guitarist to weekly work and European touring as a 22 yr old musician with New Orleans Bourbon Street sax man Gary Brown. Steady playin from ‘06-‘11 with some serious New York players taught me more (Al Street, Adam Scone, Ian Hendrickson Smith, High & Mighty Brass Band, Smoota, Adam Falcon) while playing lead guitar and national touring on a tour bus for the MTV pop punk band Just Kait took my musical educations even further. Connecting with Bay Area Lugnut Brand Records in 2011 introduced more beautiful music endeavors. And since 2012, Austin, Tx the Wormhole Records family in Houston and playing lead guitar alongside Texas legend Alejandro Escovedo has helped bring it together even more for Buenos Diaz.

Brian Wolff is a guitarist, singer and songwriter based in Austin, Texas. Wolff’s musical style draws influence heavily from Classic Rock, 90’s Alternative, and Blues. His songs are marked by big guitars and impactful rhythms complete with thoughtful, introspective and unique lyrics. He led the band Fair City Fire for 7 years as they produced two LPs and embarked on five national tours. When the band split during the 2020 pandemic, Wolff narrowed his focus on writing songs and moving forward as a solo artist.

In Summer 2021, Brian Wolff teamed up with producer-extraordinaire, Frenchie Smith, to record his debut five-song EP, “The Punch” featuring his band, Brian Wolff & The Howlers. Current members are Tim Moen on bass, Joe Valadez on drums and Scott Blanco on lead guitar. Wolff’s songs “I Love You, Goodnight” and “Motion” were separately featured as KUTX’s Song of the Day. Upon “The Punch” EP’s release in June 2022, listeners from all over the world have listened in on all major online streaming platforms.

Wolff has recently completed his sophomore EP with Frenchie Smith, “The Golden Age”. The first single, “Talk to Me”, was released April 14th. The rest of the EP will likely be released in June 2023. Official release date TBD.
