LIVE REVIEW: Johnny Flynn and the Sussex Wit, Independent 5/17/11

Johnny's set was like a play with many acts: each song added a unique layer to the story.

Live Review: Mumford & Sons w/ Johnny Flynn & The Sussex Wit, Matthew & The Atlas @ Brighton Dome 4/10/2010

Live Review: Mumford & Sons w/ Johnny Flynn & The Sussex Wit, Matthew & The Atlas @ Brighton Dome 4/10/2010 Mumford & Sons' headline show at the Brighton Dome on Monday was my fourth time seeing the band - and I still remember the first very vividly indeed. It was Glastonbury 2009, and the band were warming up for Laura Marling's secret show at what I believe was that year's Greenpeace tent. I believe they played as a three piece (though I may be wrong), with acoustic, double bass and percussion - amidst the flails of a white sheet behind them and claustrophobic set up of the tent (which doubled as a rather hectic cafe), suddenly overrun with pleasantly rowdy [...]

Away Game was Officially the Best Thing to Happen to Music, Ever

Away Game was Officially the Best Thing to Happen to Music, Ever I just don't understand it. I mean, I come back from the most amazing musical weekend I think I have ever enjoyed, and instead of being interested and happy for me, when I start telling people about it they get this weird look in their eyes which looks just a little like blind homicidal rage. Even more unusually, this look only seems to really go away when I shush and complain about the bad weather in Edinburgh this time of year. (The weather on Eigg, by the way, was awwwwwesome!) Anyhow, this is the epitome, in its own [...]

Johnny Flynn: Been Listening

Johnny Flynn: Been Listening Words: Gareth O'Malley Any music lover's most likely said these exact words at some stage in their lives: "Why isn't [band/artist] more well-known? They really should be!" Fans of Johnny Flynn and the Sussex Wit (to give his band some recognition) would seem to have more right to complain than others. Over the last two-and-a-bit years, the London nu-folk scene's picked up more plaudits than you could shake a stick at. Laura Marling picked up a Mercury for 'Alas I Cannot Swim', and Noah and the Whale and Mumford and Sons [...]

Stream: Johnny Flynn – "Kentucky Pill"

Stream: Johnny Flynn – "Kentucky Pill" British folk artist Johnny Flynn has made his new single "Kentucky Pill" available on his myspace page (linked below). "Kentucky Pill" is the first single from Flynn's upcoming album Been Listening , which will be released on June 7 through Transgressive Records. Been Listening was produced by Ryan Hadlock and is Flynn's second album, and the follow-up to 2008's excellent A Larum and last year's Sweet William EP. The album feature a duet with British folk artist Laura Marling and was recorded with Flynn's backing band The Sussex Wit. Flynn is currently touring [...]

Johnny Flynn at Barfly

Johnny Flynn at Barfly The HMV "Next Big Thing Festival" ran for a week in February at various Venues across the Capital. I went to see Johnny Flynn (without The Sussex Wit, his 4 piece band) at the Barfly, Camden. On recordings, Johnny Flynn's voice sounds mature beyond his (actually very young) age. His lyrics are insightful and poetic and I had expected someone much older. Possibly with a beard. But blonde, blue eyed and terribly cute, it's refreshing to know that the folk genre is still evolving through a new generation. His album "A Larum" features The Sussex Wit; [...]

Toad Top 20 Albums 2008: 16-20

Toad Top 20 Albums 2008: 16-20 16. Elbow - The Seldom Seen Kid This is far from Elbow's best album, in my opinion, but it's bloody good nevertheless. There's a definite confidence about Elbow these days - a swagger almost - that is pretty much the defining characteristic of this record. Elbow - Starlings 17. Devotchka - A Mad & Faithful Telling It's slightly amazing to think that these guys started off as a novelty cabaret band, considering that they've now released [...]

laura marling, johnny flynn & mumford and sons at cafe du nord

laura marling, johnny flynn & mumford and sons at cafe du nord there was very little chance of our missing laura marling , whose debut album alas i cannot swim made an immediate impression on us, when she rolled through town last weekend with fellow countrymen johnny flynn & the sussex wit and mumford & sons. you can imagine, then, our expectations. which makes us all the more happy to report that they were exceeded. marling sounded terrific, singing, we thought, even better than on her record, and the harmonies with her bandmates (upright bass, keys, fiddle, drums/accordion) lent the songs a v. appealing bonhomie & robustness. the standouts: "ghosts" and, [...]

The Wrote and the Writ

The Wrote and the Writ Laura Marling did some sort of radio show the other week and wound up covering Johnny Flynn's "The Wrote and the Writ" which is definitely one of my favorite songs off of his album "A Larum". Laura Marling also has an amazing voice and is totally cute and I can't believe that she's younger than me... but anyway sorry I couldn't embed the video, I'm not that smart.

Johnny Flynn, Laura Marling and Mumford And Sons!

Johnny Flynn, Laura Marling and Mumford And Sons! I saw the most amazing show last night. It was billed as the Fee Fie Foe Fum ( I smell the blood...) tour and featured young (I'm guessing everyone was under 25) British folk artists Johhny Flynn and the Sussex Wit, Laura Marling and Mumford & Sons. They all come out of the classic electric folk-rock tradition of Fairport Convention, Steeleye Span but also, in the case of Mumford & Sons, a dose of Fleet Foxes. There were electric banjos, cellos, fiddles, accordions, glockenspiels, mandolin, trumpet plus many other stringed instruments that brought the folk festival vibe to [...]

Johnny Flynn's Wit

Johnny Flynn's Wit I know that I'm trailing a ways behind the crowd on Johnny Flynn , but I wanted to weigh in on his new album A Larum anyway. For me, both Flynn and the album remind me a lot of what was easily my favorite album of last year: Elvis Perkins' Ask Wednesday . Not so much with A Larum's opening track The Box , but definitely with the second, The Wrote & The Writ , both in tone as well as subject (listen to Perkin's It's Only [...]

song obsession friday! (for the week ending August 29)

Song obsessions are those songs that we listen to on repeat. I noticed that my obsessions are often a week long. I also thought that other people might have similar obsessions. I've collected a panel of a few like-minded individuals and gotten their "song obsessions of the week." Quite often it's easy to explain why the song is good; it's much hard to explain why we're obsessed. Maybe you'll become obsessed with one of these. - Adrian ( me ): Johnny Flynn & the Sussex Wit - Wayne Rooney [...]

Johnny Flynn And Willie Nile

Johnny Flynn And Willie Nile Two singer-songwriters, separated chronologically by 30 years, yet both mining the basic building blocks of americana - one via olde England and Woody Guthrie, the other via the Clash and Woody Guthrie. Johnny Flynn's A Larum takes his direction from the intial folk rock exuberance of Fairport Convention and Steeleye Span but spins an utterly vibrant, effortlessly melodic song cycle that sounds like it was recorded 100 years ago yesterday. (Hat tip: Andy at Razing the Bar ) Willie Nile's new album, Live From The Streets of New York , captures the elfin sparkplug [...]

Live in Edinburgh This Week - 10th August 2008

Live in Edinburgh This Week - 10th August 2008 Well, we'll be back by the end of this week, back into a maelstrom of gigs. What the fuck am I going to do on Saturday? Go to see Johnny Flynn at Cabaret Voltaire? Sparrow & the Workshop at the Liquid Room? Or Eagleowl at the Scottish Scullery. I am going to be spread thinner than the veneer of desperately forced joy on a vegetarian's malnourished visage. I think I may even be doing a show for Fresh Air Radio that day, but I have no idea what about, as yet. So, what's happening on the busiest week of [...]

I Fucking Hate Ciabatta

Fucking ciabatta. I can't stand this stuff: mealy, floury, flavourless, inedible rubbish. I don't mean proper ciabatta of course, but it's been so long since I had one of those that I barely remember what they're supposed to taste like. Basically, we in the UK have done to the ciabatta what we long ago did to [...]
