    Биография

    John Flynn is an American singer-songwriter and activist known for his powerful music and tireless efforts on behalf of the lost and the lonely, the shackled and scarred. His career has embodied an authentic troubadour odyssey that moved legendary folk DJ Gene Shay to call Flynn "the most quintessential folk singer in my life", and Deana McCloud, Executive Director of the Woody Guthrie Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma to write, "John Flynn is the real deal. His work follows in the footsteps of Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Kris Kristofferson, and other social justice troubadours as he speaks the truth and gives a voice to society's disenfranchised. His work fills your heart and opens your eyes as he continues to walk the walk of a true advocate for equality, justice, and peace." "The only reason John Flynn doesn’t have half a dozen songs in Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger and Alan Lomax’s book Hard Hitting Songs for Hard-Hit People is that when they started writing, John hadn’t even been born yet. But he’s a worthy heir to the tradition and to the commitments Seeger, Lomax and Guthrie represent. John can hit hard, but he does it with humanity, heart and often humor. When he follows a powerful ballad about the tough lives of prisoners with a children’s song about “duck doodoo” on your pickup truck, it’s hard not to imagine Pete, Woody and Alan smiling and singing along." -Si Kahn
