Captains Rest, Glasgow

Over 18s only

Bass Player Luke Top and guitarist Lewis Pesacov were longtime friends with a shared loved for world music when they started fronting informal African-inspired dance sessions two years ago at Los Angeles clubs such as the famed Spaceland and The Echo. The sound caught on, and soon musicians from across the city were clamoring to sit in with the ever expanding ensembles.

With a current roster of 10 to 12 musicians on any given night - including current and former members of band's such as Foreign Born, The Fall, We Are Scientists, Glasser, Cass McComb's Band and even the Argentinean pop star, Erica Garcia (who'se been nomiated for Grammy's and won Rolling Stone Latin America best female singer three years in a row!) - Fool's Gold plays a distinctive hybrid of dance sounds from West Africa, Eritrea, and Ethiopia.
