GORDON BELL

Gordon Bell, aka Gustav Bertha... the poet of the underground, an artist that typifies the independent spirit.. Playing live, releasing cd's on his own label and hosting a successful podcast show called 'Way Past Bedtime'. Also the front man for 'Not The Sensational Alex Harvey Band'. (article on them coming soon)

Difficult to explain the music... bohemian, alternative.. If you are not glued to the lyrics of his songs then you are just mesmerized by the melodies and arrangements..

One day and i said this many years ago, i would like to see Gordon Bell in a big venue, Live, with a band performing his music..

Gordon Bell descibes his music as thus:

My songs are warmly delicate, darkly funny tales of life, love, hate, the fall of civilisation, corporate domination and yes, of course, death. They are dotted with the kind of twisted characters you might find in a weird novel cowritten by Martin Amis and Douglas Adams. I am told that listening to me live feels like sitting up until 4am with a dear old friend and a bottle of whisky.
