THE MUSIC

J.Lynn Johnston has a gift for capturing the small moments in life, and expanding on them with wit and insight.

Those roots are worn proudly on his sleeve as J.Lynns music moves with an articulate intelligence without ever losing its hook.

J.Lynn Johnston draws on influences that run from Motown to Refused. The result is a unique brand of Indie-Blue-Eyed-Soul that demands a repeat listen. J.Lynn lives in Los Angeles with Benatar, his Great Dane.
