Moon Gel are a blues/rock outfit consisting of long-time musical collaborators guitarist/vocalist 'Dr. Baby Biscotti' and drummer Andy. After the breakup of their previous band, Edinburgh swamp blues outfit Dirty Monet, Biscotti went on to front the gourmet electro-punk n' roll group Chateau Greyskull (RIP) and was Jimmy in the ned themed Led Zepp tribute band 'Ned Zeppelin'. Biscotti and Andy's paths crossed again and in September 2010, Moon Gel was born, bringing to London-town a revolutionary new blend of sonic psychedelic lubricant.

The Gladstone www.theglad.co.uk is tucked away on a small Dickensian side street just around the corner from Borough tube station, five minutes from London Bridge, ten from the South Bank. Run by musicians, we’ve been called ‘south London’s coolest little pub’ by Time Out. We’re a pub, a venue and a label all rolled into one.

We're tiny, sixty capacity at a squeeze. We have no stage, we clear the furniture away from the back wall and set the bands up there. We don't mic any amps,or any kits, the bands sound as they should, without interference. We never charge in on the door, we know what circuit venues are like, and we know we don't want our place to ever get like that. The room is intimate and intense, and sounds fantastic. Over the years we've had everyone from the late legendary country star Larry Jon Wilson to Fionn Regan, Noah and the Whale, Ellie Goulding, Dry The River, Danny & The Champions of the World, Southern Tenant Folk Union, Smoke Fairies, the Loose Salute, Treetop Flyers, Viv Albertine, Trevor Moss and Hannah Lou, Erin K & Tash, Redlands Palamino Co., Nic Dawson Kelly and many more down here. We run two labels, Superglad Records and the Gladstone Cassettes series and we have our own stage outside the Tate Modern at the South Bank ‘Merge Festival’ autumn 2011.

If you’re a band and you’d like to play, contact us at gladbands@yahoo.co.uk with a link to your music, and if we think you’d suit what we do here we’ll put you on one of our nights. Or just drop in for a pint!


This is a page to archive choons I quite like. These are mostly bedroom recordings, sometimes with friends, sometimes with a drum machine :) some are quite lo-fi, so apologies..

SLOW WOLF like the city, but dream of mountains, forests, the sea, and rocks – big rocks; and log cabins, they’re pretty good.  When not building dens or stalking bison, they make music that strips away the frivolity of modern life and connects with more basic human emotions; often by evoking imagery of the natural world and the struggles faced by all in the animal kingdom.

They are a folk band with with more than a touch of blues; they interweave finger picking with soulful fiddle hooks, intricate guitar lines and haunting vocals, while delicate bouzouki, brooding bass and driving percussion round up the pack.

Regulars of London’s folk scene, rumours and superstitions have it Slow Wolf will release their debut album on April 11th 2014.
