Flying Horseman

Flying Horseman - Wild Eyes [2010 Conspiracy Records]

 
Lots of bands can 'rock' live, but rare is the band who can create a mood, evoke emotions, make standing in a smoky club feel like standing knee deep in the mud, watching the black night sky, thinking back over your life.The music of Flying Horseman is like that, delivered with such fervor, so intimate and personal, and with such brutal musical intensity, that the songs take on the gravity and urgency of sonic directives from some higher power.

Flying Horseman's musical inspiration is derived from joy division, blind lemon jefferson, john fahey, the velvet underground, nick cave, woven hand, townes van zandt, ...
The band around singer songwriter Bert Dockx has been together for over 2 years now, and has been overwhelmingly productive. ‘Wild Eyes’ is their first album, available on CD and in a limited edition
