About Gordy Marshall
Drums, Percussion, Flute, Vocals

Gordy Marshall and Mick Wilson reconnected when The Moody Blues and 10cc were performing a double-headline show at the Coca Cola Dome in Johannesburg in June, 2012 – it was 30 years since they had last worked together.

Ultimately, what came from that meeting was…this band. After Gordy left The Moodies in 2015, he and Mick revisited the band that they’d put together at the Johannesburg meeting. It was called The Rewind Project, and eventually it morphed into: GO NOW! The Music of THE MOODY BLUES.

Although GO NOW! Is technically a tribute band, it is also much more than that. With no attempt to ‘lookalike,’ this is essentially the very finest artists in their field gathering together to celebrate some of the 20^th century’s best-loved com0posers and writers. The result is a honed live performance of music from what is widely considered to be ‘The Greatest Classic Rock Band of a Generation.’ THE MOODY BLUES – played with passion and outstanding technical proficiency.

During 25 years of touring with The Moody Blues, Gordy managed to slot in six years’ worth of tours with Justin Hayward on the arena tours of Jeff Wayne’s The War of the Worlds. The flittering list of artists Gordy has worked with as a session musician include Sir Cliff Richard, Mariah Carey, Rod Stewart, Emma Bunton (Spice Girls), Joss Stone, Gary Barlow, Leo Sayer, Ricky Wilson (Kaiser Chiefs), Mike Batt Katie Melua, Chris Spedding, Herbie Flowers, Level 42’s Mike Lindup, Christ Thompson, Russell Watson, Jason Donovan, Daniel Bedingfield, and David Essex.

In addition to his pop and rock work, he has been involved in many West End musicals, including Fame, Great, We Will Rock You, Mamma Mia, Rent, Whistle Down the Wind, and Thriller Live! In 2012, Gordy saw the publication of his first travel book, Postcards from a Rock & Roll Tour (published by Splendid Books). It’s available on Amazon, iTunes, Kindle, as an audio book, and directly from the GO NOW! Website. Sections of the audio book have been serialized on BBC Radio.
