Johnny Flynn reveals details of second album
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater March 30th, 2010

Johnny Flynn is often marked out as being in that group of British folkies, the ones with a combined age of around a hundred between the lot of 'em. Marling, Mumford, Noah & The Whale, etc. Of that bunch, he is certainly the one who sounds the oldest, a weather-beaten, well-enunciated voice being his trademark.

Anyway, he released his debut album A Larum back in 2008 to reasonable critical acclaim, and late last year released an EP, Sweet William (go to the bottom of this article for a free download of 'Drum'). The good news for Flynn fans is that he'll return with his second album proper on June 7, when Transgressive will release Been Listening. It also features work by the aforementioned Marling as well as Anni Calvi. It'll be available on the usual formats. Tracklisting for it below:

  1. Kentucky Pill
  2. Lost and Found
  3. Churlish May
  4. Been Listening
  5. Barnacled Warship
  6. Sweet William Part Two
  7. The Water w/ Laura Marling
  8. Howl
  9. Agnes
  10. Amazon Love
  11. The Prizefighter and The Heiress

There is also an extensive tour to accompany and preview the record, some of it with Mumford & Sons and some of it in Europe. Details below:
