Flying Ibex: Could Have Gone Your Way

Flying Ibex unleash their new single ‘Could Have Gone Your Way’, an afro-beat inspired psych-pop track.

Flying Ibex From their beginnings as the house band for a commune of artists in south London, improvising to silent films and theatre pieces, Best Laid Plans’ new signing Flying Ibex have progressed through a sea of influences including African cassette tapes, tropical rhythms and experimentation with all manner of old analogue gear. The band emerged at the end of 2012 with their debut album ‘Travel in Dangerous Places’, centred around songwriter Barnaby Keen.

Flying Ibex subsequently grew beyond the solo talents of Keen and now incorporates the skills of guitarist/vocalist Nathaniel Keen, drummer Dave De Rose, and Chilean bassman Colin Somervell. The band are ample in musicality and have an almost psychic rhythmic connection that comes from years of improvisation and exploration together on stages and in studios across the country.

When not playing with Flying Ibex, Barnaby is a prolific collaborator, and is currently working on a bilingual album with Lisbon native Benjamim. The project that was conceived 2 years ago in London when the two musicians met on the same stage and traded knowledge of Brazilian music and favourite Dylan songs.

‘Could Have Gone Your Way’ is the second track to be taken from Flying Ibex’s forthcoming EP on Best Laid Plans, following on from acclaimed first single the buzzy ‘Away From My Mind’ [which was a previous Dose].
