Johnny Flinn was born on March 14, 1983 in Johannesburg. When the boy was two years old, the parents moved to the UK with him, as South Africa was pursued for performances against apartheid.
Family lived in London, Hampshire, and after birth, Lilly's daughter was moving to the Wales Countryside. Pope of the boy, Eric Flynn, actor by profession, performed in the musical West-End, played the main character in the series "Ivango," and Mama Caroline was engaged in painting and ceramics.

In both educational institutions, young people paid a scholarship as a talented chorist, and Bedlez's theater circle, who led the English teacher, lit in a young man in an interest in the scene. Higher education he received at the Academy of Dramatic Art of Webber Douglas.
Now the musician supports good relations with all relatives, not forgetting to mention their names when publishing a photo in "Instagram". Eric Flynn died from cancer in 2002, and Caroline Flynn was still Bodra, with pleasure communicating with his grandchildren, continues to engage in creativity, which can be found from her profiles in social networks.
Personal life
The artist is happily married on his long-standing friend Beatris Minnis. The couple met in the school, the musician remembers this in an interview so:
"It was immediately clear that this is fate."In the personal life of the guys was not everything smoothly, especially when the student time came and they had to part. Beatrice went to study at the Winchester School of Arts, and Johnny - to study the basics of theatrical skill. Young people were diverged, they began to meet again.
The final relations of Flynna and Minnis were decorated in 2011. The actor's wife works by the Punchdrunk theater group designer. Spouses raise three children and constantly live in Hakney, in the northeast of London.
Music and films
The music of the young man was interested in being a teenager. At first, my mother handed him his songwriter of the 70s, and then Joe stumbled upon a school sale on the plate Bob Dilan The Freewheelin '. The shock forced the talented boy to play the game on the guitar, then on the violin and the pipe.In addition to music, the Flynna school attracted theatrical activity, and part of the time he paid the scene. After graduating from a dramatic school, a young man joined the theater troupe Ed Hall Propeller, in parallel realizing his musical ambitions with the first group of Apocalypso.
In 2005, Johnny appeared on television scans in several television series, and in the next - debuted in the cinema in the adventure film "Crusade in jeans". But popularity came to the actor in a few years thanks to the leading role in the drama "Lotofagi".
From 2008 to this day, Flynn is the frontman of the Johnny Flynn and The Sussex Wit group. Their first record A LARUM became the favorite of the year, then the discography was replenished with the Albums Been Listening (2010) and Country Mile (2013). Latest collective discs, Silling and Live At The Roundhouse, came out in 2017 and 2018.
In 2014, the tapes "Once in New York" and "Sils Maria" were moving in the filmography. A few years later, Johnny's scenic speech was held in West End and on Broadway in the famous play Martin McDonach "Palachi", and since 2018, the artist, together with China, playing a "Real West".

These were: Telenovel "Remember all the ties", the pictures "Beast", "Genius", where he played the young Albert Einstein, "rejected" with Lily Collins and "Vanity Fair" (the role of William Dobly).
Johnny never wanted to share her life only to actor or music. Ideal for him would be a combination of these directions in one. The embodiment of this idea was for Flynna the image of the main character in the tape "David Bowie: the story of a man from the stars," where he had to play the legend of rock. The picture of the musician was invited in 2019, the film is promised to submit to the court of viewers in 2020.

Next month, the rental of Emma with Annea Taylor-Joy, where Flynna belongs to the main men's role, and the soundtrack written in the final. I liked the film to the public and viewers, but the views did not have time to gain turnover due to the beginning of quarantine on COVID-19.
During the pandemic, the musician and his team worked in home studios, writing songs. The team launched in social networks charitable fees for children from combat zones and for musicians who have lost their livelihood during this period.
