Album: What's Done is Done
Artist's Biography
The
Moondogz are a Cheshire based indie rock band. The line-up consists of Ant
Machin (rhythm guitar and vocals), Gaz Morgan (lead guitar and backing
vocals), Andy Shallcross (Bass) and Aaron Walker (drums). The band has
existed in one form or another for several years, formed by Ant. The
Moondogz released an EP last year called 'Resurgence', and have now followed
it up with a debut album 'What's Done is Done'. The band has begun work on
their next album, but work on this has slowed down since the new COVID
restrictions have hit the UK; the band are currently not legally allowed to
be in the same room!
As with any band, the influences are wide and varied. The most obvious that
get mentioned are Nirvana, Bowie, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Foo
fighters, Blur, The Wildhearts, Guns n' Roses, The Misfits, Muse and Queen.
These are just the influences we are aware of; we stand on the shoulders of
giants!
About the Album:
Album theme: The album title came from the desire of the current line-up to
move away from the early folky blues sound of the band to a more rock sound,
and also that a lot of the lyrics are a reflection on Ant's past
experiences; things that can't be changed; hence 'What's Done is Done'.
Album release: 'What's Done is Done' was
released on Bandcamp and CD on 23rd September 2020.

Artist's
Biography
New album due September 2020. The Moondogz (formerly known as Irwell) are an
Indie Rock Blues Band. The band was formed in Middlewich, Cheshire in 2011
by musical stalwart, Ant Machin and has changed dramatically since its
earlier incarnation.
In 2019, the new line up decided it was time to take the band in a new
direction. Although the band has changed in many ways over the years, you
can still expect the same exciting Rock n Roll you've come to love and enjoy
from the band.
From the more laid back, blues based vibe as can be heard on their debut
album 'Connection', to the current, more Rock and indie sound of today. The
band has never lost its blues edge ....which Ant considers the 'soul of the
band'.
The new name came from our mutual love and respect of classic Rock n Roll.
The name stems from the period when the Quarry men (on their way to becoming
the Beatles) temporarily named themselves Johnny and the Moon Dogs.
