Kev has recently recorded his debut solo album with producer Paul Savage (The Delgados, Franz Ferdinand, Mogwai, Arab Strap).
The album is influenced by early 90s alt rock and inspired by acts like by Courtney Barnett, Alvvays, The Lemonheads, Dinosaur Jnr and Built To Spill. With an acoustic guitar borrowed from Tracyanne Campbell (Camera Obscura/Tracyanne & Danny) and a bass borrowed from Teenage Fanclub’s Francis MacDonald, the album was recorded in 2018 and is part of a shared universe tryptic alongside the critically acclaimed comic Warpaint and Kev’s novel Here Be Apples (which will be bundled with the album as a free digital download.)
Foxy Orthodoxy is a document of our times, exploring themes prevalent in Kev’s journalism – anarchism, feminism, gender politics, the ideological culture wars, the cult of personality and the hypocrisy of the human heart.
