Tex Kennedy - One of the fine City's favourite sons
Manage episode 515714414 series 3564340
This week - I got to sit down for a pint with Matt “tex” Kennedy, 1/5th of the well oiled machine that is floral image, known city wide as the K. O. B (king of bass) for his fast attack ,unfathomable rhythm and onstage antics.
Quoted by Spide Writer “Kennedy is the Iggy Pop of bass guitar”.
In amongst all the chaos of touring and living a life as normal as a free wheeling freak can,
He focuses a lot of time on his own project Black Magick Caravan. A project birthed from the grief of losing grandparents and finding a way to channel grief into songs and musical freakouts.
Black Magick caravan is a mystical whimsy psych folk project toying with the feelings of paranoia, anxiety and finding the light at the end of the tunnel with themes of the occult, tarot, dreams.
Flourish, the first song from black Magick caravans album titled “upon the dying flowers” is set to be released this autumn into winter.
Don't forget to check out the ever evolving Spotify playlist of Norwich bands material compiled by pod producer Reuben Andrews called La musique de Norwich.
