Career
Originally from Buffalo, NY, Gurf moved to Texas in 1975 and initially performed with Blaze Foley, in both Austin and Houston. Moving to Los Angeles in 1981, he met up with Lucinda Williams, a fellow Texas-based musician who had also moved there. He became her accompanist for 11 years (1985 to 1996) and produced two of her records: Lucinda Williams and its follow-up, Sweet Old World. Morlix was involved in the preliminary work on her next project, but eventually left in frustration at the repeated delays in the release of Lucinda's Car Wheels on a Gravel Road album - the album being finally released in 1998, produced by Steve Earle and Ray Kennedy. In 1990 he accompanied Warren Zevon on tour. He relocated back to Austin in 1991. In 2000's he was a member of Ian McLagan's Bump Band.
