The Gold Needles

British Psychedelic Pop-Rock Band

Kingston upon Hull, UK based power pop, psych, prog band writing and performing all their own material. Originally formed as a studio project, The Gold Needles have expanded recently to become a full live band. Comprising of Simon Dowson (vocals and guitar), Dave Burbage (lead guitar), Mark English (keyboards, percussion and backing vocals), Carl Slaughter (bass and backing vocals) and Justin Davidson (drums) the band have been writing and recording since 2015 although friendships go back much further than that. The band revel in being eclectic both in influence and output though they are pleased with comparisons made with Be Bop Deluxe and The Church.
