Gold Digger

Stories from the road.

On Saturday 29th August Gold Digger are playing a gig at Dirty South alongside Bez from the Happy Mondays. He’s got a new band going called Domino Bones, which I believe features ex-members of the Stone Roses and Black Grape. Should be a good crack. I’m looking forward to performing our new Gold Digger mash-up of [...]

Absent Kelly brings you a multitude of talent at the Dirty South Mini Festival! Members of The Stone Roses and Happy Mondays come together to perform their first ever London show, as the super group Domino Bones! The group features Bez (Happy Mondays), Simon Moore (The Stone Roses/Ian Brown), Wags (Black Grape/Mondays) as well as other [...]

Here’s another video that we’ve just uploaded. Outside the Smoking Dog in Lyon at Fete de Musique.

Well almost. Gold Digger have just come back from performing at this year’s Fete de la Musique in Lyon, where we played our dance-rock mashed-up of Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’. It’s a great track that we Gold Diggers have put through the machines and morphed into something totally new. We’ve called it ‘Now is the time’ and is definitely one of [...]

Just got back from playing the Kona Mash Up gig at The Drop Off Cafe in the Afan Forest, Wales. An absolutely stunning place, with a great crowd and a wicked venue. We Gold Diggers played two 45 minute sets and had the crowd jumping along and calling for more. In fact, the event organizer loved [...]

Nice. Olivia has grabbed some footage of our recent show at UPP. This was a fantastic venue and we hope to get the opportunity to play there again soon. They’ve got a really nice scene soted there and all the bands are helping each other out. Nice vibe.
Anyway, check out the video. Olivia on vocs.

More footage from UPP. The video starts just after I’ve realised that Simon has thrown his drumsticks into the laptop, smashing the screen. Of course, I am completely professional and act as if nothing has happened.  The crack has now spread across the screen so much that it’s difficult to see what’s going on. Hopefully [...]

Brothers! Sisters! Gold Digger are back with a headline slot at the Mother Bar (above the 333 Club) in Shoreditch on May 1st. Should be a cracker as all the bands look amazing (check them out via the links below).  See you there?
What have we been up to I hear you cry? Well loads actually, apart from some [...]

As I type these letters with my ice cold hands as London sinks below freezing once again I’m already thinking about the next series of Gold Digger gigs and when to book them. First off, I’d like to ask anyone out there who doesn’t live in London to have a nose about and see if [...]

Fri, the 19th of December. Thanks to everyone who came along. We gave out loads of copies of the new album GET IT TOGETHER, and played our best performance yet
At 9pm the place was empty, which was a little worrying – but during the next hour the place filled up like a kettle waiting to [...]
