Flipside works in an ensemble style - with each member carrying equal weight. "Serious Fun" is the main philosophy driving the group. Paul Unger is the Assistant Principal Bass with the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra. Dennis Durick (Drums) has played and recorded with Dave Liebman, Joe McBride, Quartet Out and Circo. Dave Monsch (Sax) is currently very active in the original Jazz, Big Band, Avant Garde, and the straight ahead music scene in DFW as well in the studio.
