About myra flynn
Burlington , VT
Myra Flynn is a 24-year-old singer/songwriter hailing from central Vermont.
Her live shows blend soulful vocals with an engaging stage presence,
and she maintains a busy performance schedule in Vermont and
beyond.
Myra’s neo-soul vocal stylings have been compared to the likes of Erykah
Badu, Jill Scott, Leela James, and Alicia Keys, and she counts Joni
Mitchell among her lyrical influences.
A versatile musician, Myra performs as an intimate solo act, with musical
collaborator Paul Bo≠a as Quiet Songs, or backed by her tight veteran
band Spark. In each format, she delivers earnest original songs and
obscure covers to a growing fan base.
At age 16, Myra collaborated with Wyclef Jean’s Refugee All Stars. She
has since opened for Ivan Neville, Alexa Ray Joel, Slick Rick, and Lee
“Scratch” Perry.
Emphasizing, “I was a writer before I was a singer,” Myra is also a working
journalist. Her original compositions, some including her own spoken
poetry, reflect maturity as both a writer and a performer.
