John Francis Flynn released a new album “Look Over the Wall, See the Sky” on Nov.10th, following on from his critically acclaimed debut album and accompanying live performances. “Look Over the Wall, See the Sky” picks up where “I Would Not Live Always” left off.

John masterfully unpicks traditional songs and rearranges them with an emotional force. They float in a surreal space between the past and the present, the analog and the digital, between love and tragedy. The unconventional use of instruments and jagged arrangements gives the work a  magnetism by drawing you into its curious orbit of experimental folk. Look Over The Wall, See The Sky is a re-imagining of traditional Irish music: powerful, hopeful and free.

John Francis Flynn is a singer and multi-instrumentalist who creates contemporary music using traditional and folk material. His debut album “I Would Not Live Always” was released on Rough Trade imprint River Lea Records in 2020, earning rave reviews and winning 2 awards at the RTE Folk Awards. https://www.facebook.com/johnfrancisflynnmusic

“I Would Not Live Always offers a singular and striking clarity of vision.4 STARS” UNCUT
“John Francis Flynn’s ‘My Son Tim’ Is An Extraordinary Piece Of Music” CLASH
“like a threatening thunderhead perforated with golden shafts of sunlight: lysergic synth lines, intermittent bursts of overdriven guitar, a clarinet saturated in tape delay and a treated tin whistle disrupt the atmosphere of these old songs without ever diminishing their power. 4 STARS ” THE GUARDIAN

Plus support:

Hollow Hand: “The attitude of the album is definitely DIY” says Max Kinghorn-Mills of Hollow Hand’s 3rd album. Despite the creative drive and singular determination behind the album, it’s also one that has welcomed some outside input. “I’m very excited to have some guests on the album as I admire each of these musicians so much,” says Kinghorn-Mills, referring to the input of Tim Smith (Midlake, Harp), Spencer Cullum, Holly Macve, Ryan Pollie and Oliver Newton, with the album being mixed by Chris Cohen in Los Angeles. https://www.hollowhand.com

Samuel Organ is one of the UK’s most exciting multi-disciplinary creatives. He has worked alongside artists such as Caroline Polachek, Shygirl, Sega Bodega, Danny L Harle, BABii, Iglooghost, Kai Whiston ++ and is a key member of experimental jazz group The Physics House Band, who have built a worldwide cult following with their
chaotic improvisations and live shows. Following his debut solo album in 2021, Samuel Organ looks to cement himself further as an independent artist with this latest offering – ‘Guided By Horses’. An ode to the South Downs, and the history of downland music. The EP consists of seven tracks inspired by the chalk paths, eery undulating hills and glimpses of the devil. https://samuelorgan.bandcamp.com
