flakebelly

Hidden away in the windswept landscapes of the Outer Hebrides, flakebelly emerges as a distinctive voice in the music world, blending the boundaries of psychedelic indie rock with acoustic folk-jazz. His sound is an intricate fusion of folk-inspired acoustic warmth, blues-drenched guitar riffs, and ambient, psychedelic textures. Layered with jazz-infused piano melodies and indie rock nuances, his music forms a rich, genre-blurring tapestry that immerses the listener in an experimental and evocative journey. 

Flakebelly's unique approach to songwriting is gaining recognition, with his track 'In Parks Of Tall Trees' recently featured on Tom Robinson's BBC 6 Music 'Introducing Mixtape.' This recognition marks just the beginning for an artist whose ripples are slowly but surely building from an avalanche of creative ideas and relentless experimentation.

The journey began in the early 2000s when flakebelly first picked up a guitar, setting the stage for a musical evolution that has been as diverse as it has been profound. This evolution led to the release of his indie-folk EPs, 'Behaviours,' in 2022, followed by 'Lo Fidelity' in 2024. Looking ahead, his upcoming album, 'Apprentice Green,' set for release 11th November 2024, promises to push his creative boundaries even further.

In true independent spirit, flakebelly records and produces all his music from his home studio, where every note, every texture, and every lyric is crafted in solitude. His work is a testament to a continual creative evolution—one that remains in a constant state of transition, forever exploring new sonic landscapes.
