ANDY BELL (RIDE)

LP

The View From Halfway Down 

LIGHT BLUE VINYL

Limited Edition

The debut solo album from Ride guitarist and singer

Andy Bell.

Coinciding with his fiftieth birthday, The View From

Halfway Down signals a brand new chapter for Andy

Bell thirty odd years into his career.

The product of a gradual, four-year process and

finished during lockdown, the album was entirely

written and recorded by Andy, engineered by Gem

Archer and mastered by Heba Kadry.

+ Limited Indie Shop version is pressed on blue

coloured vinyl.

+ Please note our stock is arriving in two waves. The

second wave will land on the 13th of October.

Back in 2016, Andy was inspired by David Bowie’s

death to be more proactive about finishing his

songs, more confident about sharing them and to

channel all of this into finally making a solo album.

He laid down some tracks in former Beady Eye and

Oasis bandmate Gem’s studio, but got diverted

when Ride’s live reunion blossomed into a full

return. A run of two albums, an EP and two world

tours later, it would take a pandemic to give Andy

the space to complete The View From Halfway

Down.

“I’ve always wanted to make a solo album, I’ve

always said I would do it, although I never imagined

it happening like, or sounding like, this one does,”

explains Andy. “I’d been sitting on this pile of

almost finished tracks, along with all the other

hundreds of ideas that had fallen by the wayside

since I’ve been making music. Lockdown gave me

the opportunity to find a way to present it to the

world.

This is the LIMITED EDITION BLUE VINYL

version.
