Live music: Geography of the Moon

Largely influenced by bands from the 80s and the 90s, somewhere between psych rock, post punk, new wave and indie rock, GOTM create their own brand of mashed up styles: Psychwave.

The band is freshly back from touring Japan and South East Asia.

The Scottish-Italian/French duo got together in East London in the summer of 2016 and later moved to Glasgow. A haunting voice and indie style lyrics on top of hypnotic looped layers of guitars and drum machines, and killer guitar solos. On stage, they like to go with the flow and often end up improvising improbable melodies, creating beautiful and strange new soundscapes.

Their 2020 album Fake Flowers Never Die caught the attention of BBC radio 6 DJs, added by Vic Galloway of BBC Scotland to his 25 bands to watch out for in 2021 list, and was nominated for the SAY Awards. [Scottish Album of the Year]
