Flynn Adamson is a New Zealand-based singer, songwriter, producer, and performer who recently made the leap to full-time music - writing and producing by day, gigging by night. He's currently releasing music independently, including his latest track "Warm," co-written with Marley Sola.
In this conversation with Sela and Bjorn on LifeFM's Make Waves Up, Flynn opens up about what it actually looks and feels like to chase music as a career, and why it's nothing like you picture. He talks about running music like a business, navigating the industry as a neurodivergent artist, and the mantra sitting in his Instagram bio that reframes how he thinks about creativity, mental health, and expression.
Flynn's new single "Warm" is out now: a breakup song about someone who brings light wherever they go, written in the last 30 minutes of a session with Marley Sola.
