Johny Brown lives in Hackney, London. He has been the vocalist and writer in the Band Of Holy Joy for the past 40 years. It is an ongoing passionate romantic brutalist commitment. He hosts a radio show on ResonanceFM called Bad Punk and sometimes writes plays, one of those plays, William Burroughs Caught in Possession of the Rime of the Ancient Mariner, was performed at the Abbess theatre in Montmartre, but that was a while back, and he has been mainly on a very fine losing streak since then. The recently released Corpse Flower is his first singular book of prose poetry.
