Johnny Flynn

来自英国伦敦的歌手, Johnny Flynn是个演员, 同时也是一个诗人, 当然还是一个唱作人. 他自称深受著名诗人叶芝和莎士比亚的影响. When Clash catches up with Johnny Flynn and a couple of other members of The Sussex Wit he is in a car on the way to a wedding. In the background I can hear what Johnny describes as a “story-tape” and which he later informs me is The Picture of Dorian Gray although it takes quite a few broken conversations before it is finally switched off and I can actually hear what Johnny is trying to say. Listening to the words of Oscar Wilde strikes me as a very Johnny Flynn thing to do, though I’m not exactly sure why. He speaks softly and almost with a stutter like a nervous teenager but I don’t think it’s nerves which affect his speech – I think it’s just his way.
