Description

Flying In The Face Of Logic is the first solo album from singer/songwriter Kevin Ridley, producer/vocalist with folk-metal pioneers Skyclad. The album contains 14 original tracks, mainly inspired by the singers native Northeast (England) so fittingly, it features several northern session players notably Northumbrian pipes player Andy May, Folkworks fiddle player, Sophy Ball, and Blitzkreigs Dave Anderson on bass as well as contributions from the current members of Skyclad. Ridley sees the record as a form of continuation from Skyclads Semblance of Normality: After spending 35 years in the music industry, engineering and producing for thrash-metalers Venom, Forgodsake, Anathema, Pariah and Skyclad, Kevin Ridley took the opportunity to emerge from behind the mixing desk and experience the role of a player, rather than producer. Five years in the making, Ridley described the journey of writing the album as a challenge of learning how to fly and make my own rules.
