John Flynn writes from the heart. His powerful, memorable songs and live performances are known for their straightforward honesty and disarming humor. He is not just singing to us, he is singing of us.
In the early 90's, Flynn returned to his native Philadelphia where his first self-released CDs began to receive extensive airplay by AAA radio giant, WXPN. A standing ovation for his first main stage appearance at the 1995 Philadelphia Folk Festival cemented John's reputation as a dynamic original contemporary folk artist.
In the new millennium, John Flynn, has begun to speak and write on political and social justice issues. His 2004 album "Dragon" was among the twenty most played albums in folk music of the year. It continues to receive extensive international airplay. One track from the CD, "Angel Dawson," was included in the 2005 season finale of the CBS network television show Joan of Arcadia.
