Johnny Flynn
Been Listening (Transgressive)

Sombre strings open the latest single from Johnny Flynn’s sophomore album of the same name. However, they soon make way for a lush and laid-back guitar refrain, hook-laden melodies and sparse, big drums. As ever with Flynn, the lyrics are thought-provoking, subtle, and reflective, proving that proof is in the pudding, and the plaudits this young whippersnapper is receiving are whole-heartedly justified. Been listening and keep listening.
