Johnny Flynn & The Sussex Wit are an English folk-rock band signed to Transgressive Records. They are fronted by Johnny Flynn, an actor, poet and songwriter who cites W.B. Yeats and Shakespeare among his influences. Contrary to popular belief, his name is not Joe Flynn; he originally acted under the name Joe Flynn due to the fact that there was already another actor registered as "Johnny Flynn". Current members are David Beauchamp, Adam Beach, Jo ... e Zeitlin,James Mathe, Matt Edmonds, and Johnny's sister Lillie Flynn. The group's first album, "A Larum" was released in 2008 through Vertigo Records, receiving critical praise including a nomination for the XFM music award and Paste Magazine's best music of 2008. The group's second album Been Listening was released through Transgressive Records on 7 June 2010, and was accompanied with worldwide touring. The record followed the debut album, A Larum released in the summer of 2008, and the Sweet William EP, which was released in the winter of 2009. In 2012 Flynn released a Soundtrack Album "A Bag of Hammers". Their third album, Country Mile, is due for release in September 2013. See more [+]
