Arthur Ahbez - Arthur Ahbez & The Flaming Ahbez
Arthur Ahbez returns with his third album, Arthur Ahbez and The Flaming Ahbez.
In March 2019, Arthur began work with his band, The Flaming Ahbez. ‘I had booked a one-way ticket to Europe for a lifestyle change, and suddenly realized, I have this kick-ass band I’ve been playing with for 3 years, and I haven’t recorded an album with them. What the hell is wrong with me?’
To help capture the magic of jamming with his band and be unrestricted by the duty of engineering, he turned to studio pro Joseph Faris. Joe's limitless can-do spirit helped to cultivate and chisel ten songs into a record that exhibits the creative ability of Arthur Ahbez and The Flaming Ahbez while never straying from their authentic musical vibe.
The album marks a pivotal chapter in Arthur’s musical odyssey, promising to captivate audiences with its blend of lush arrangements, psychedelia and the musicianship of a band that has truly found its groove
Arthur Ahbez and The Flaming Ahbez soars to dizzying heights and maximizes Arthur’s uncanny ability to churn out distinct and vibrant songs.
Vacillating between playful tongue-in-cheek remarks and universal truths, Arthur's songs are grown from the soil of his personal philosophy. Love, existential angst, joy and trepidation interact behind a canvas of reverb and piercing electric guitar.
Check out the video for ‘A Simple Medication’. A brilliantly woozy slice of psych folk – wandering dreamily through space and time with acoustic guitars, flute and percussion.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
SHIPPING
Flying Nun offers free shipping in Aotearoa New Zealand on orders over $80. We have record stores in both Auckland and Wellington and will ship your record from whichever store is nearest. We aim to pack send your order next business day. Pick ups are also available from both stores.
