The Water, the third single from Johnny Flynn’s critically acclaimed second album 'Been Listening', is set for release Monday 1st November on Transgressive Records.
Mercury prize nominee Laura Marling makes a rousing appearance on critics favourite, 'The Water'. Soaked in ambiguity and allegory, 'The Water' references the life-giving and taking properties of the subject matter, “The water can’t drown me / I’m done with my dying.” A bleak sentiment brought to life with Johnny’s disarming vocals, simple guitar plucks and breathtakingly beautiful percussion.
Johnny Flynn has been confirmed as the main support to Mumford & Sons on the quartet's forthcoming UK tour, before embarking on a 'Been Listening' tour in the US and Europe. He will be coming back to play his largest UK tour to date, including London's Shepherd's Bush Empire on December 10th.
