“Oozes indie tuneage” - The Scotsman
Kev Sherry—indie rock frontman, graphic novelist, and creative powerhouse—is back with his second solo album, “Wrath Of Can” (out now- released 14th March 2025). True to his roots, its raw, unfiltered indie rock, far from the polished mainstream. “This is resolutely rough and ready,” he declares.
To mark the occasion, Kev has also penned the book “Here Be Apples”, a fictionalized account of his experiences signed to a major record label —equal parts chaos and revelation. The digital book is available now, and fans who buy the album on Bandcamp get it for free.
From leading Scotland’s cult-favourite indie supremos Attic Lights to writing militant feminist comics with Humanoids Inc., Kev's creative world keeps expanding. His music has graced screens from HBO’s Divorce to Netflix's Elite, and he’s collaborated with names like Bjorn Yttling and Cerys Matthews. More recently, he’s dived into the indie dance-pop collective Disco Mary who release new single “Proof” on June 25th https://soundcloud.com/disco-mary/proof
The album “Wrath Of Can”, produced by Chris McCrory (Catholic Action), channels unrefined indie energy while carrying a deeper message: a call for progressive voices to rise. Oh, and the title? A cheeky nod to the time Kev almost convinced his wife he was in Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan. Some stories are just too good to let go.
The book “Here Be Apples” is now available digitally and via paperback on Amazon and a bunch of other places too, later this year. Not only that, but anyone who buys the album on Bandcamp gets a free digital download of the book sent to them as well. The book details the intense and sometimes madcap adventures of a certain character (inspired by Kev himself) on a global tour with his band. The back of the book gives you the full flavour:
“Joey Wagner is touring the world with his indie rock band, Low Fruit. The cracks are starting to show but Joey can't stop the rock’n’roll circus. Stopping means facing the reality of his parents' death, and his upbringing in a religious cult under the tutelage of the elusive Ignatius St Clair. Joey soon learns that when the past reappears in the most unexpected of places, you better come up with a good plan for redemption.
Here Be Apples is a fictionalised account of the author's real experiences signed to a major record label in the days when labels had money to burn and before streaming changed everything. As off-the-scale wild as you think it might have been, the reality was always wilder.”
Welcome to the mind of Kev Sherry—where music, stories, and art collide.
