A BOOK OF FLYING

A Book of Flying marks Kyson's return to Friends of Friends and the follow up to 2013's The Water's Way. 11 roomy, beatific songs are rounded around Kyson's delicate vocal work, updating classic fold tropes with modern verve. Composed entirely by Kyson, the album is a sort of grown up bedroom album, full of contemplative instrumentation and songwriting that tugs at intrinsically human heartstrings. Whereas Kyson's music has touched on the danceflorr in the past, A Book of Flying give in entirely to his inward-looking proclivities and the result is his most complete work to date, a work of contemporary folk that paints a fluid picture of Kyson the artist.
