@ The Spice of Life
6 Moor Street
Soho
London

The Spice of Life is a Soho landmark, historic music venue and is in the heart of London's West End.

Renowned for having a great live sound The Spice of Life and Substance have worked together for over 14 years to bring the very best new music to the heart of the capital.

We have adjusted our format with social distancing rules in place which we know will be safe for all.

We also have reduced our capacity in order to keep everyone safe and seating will be limited. Hopefully in June all restrictions will be lifted and we will be able to put more tickets on sale. We are taking payment on the door but we strongly urge you to book in advance as we won?t be able to guarantee you a seat.

Be prepared to use hand sanitiser on arrival, and on leaving and returning to the room. You are more than welcome to wear facials coverings, masks or bandanas...

"One of the best little venues in London" Evening Standard

The line up

Moonfield

Tootawl
During summer 2014, a young Irish troubadour named Richard O? Gorman found himself in Nashville, Tennessee performing his bustling brand of indie/folk in such famous venues as The Bluebird.

Standing at six foot five, he was christened ?too tawl? in typical Tennessee twang. The name stuck like glue and upon his arrival home with this new title he began working on material for his debut EP. Mainly taking inspiration from artists like Bob Dylan, The Beatles and also older blues musicians such as Blind Willie McTell, Tootawl mixes this strong sense of musical tradition with his own unique folk style.

Since his time in Tennessee, Tootawl has supported Aslan in their sold out gig in Cork Opera House and Ham Sandwich at the Bandon Music Festival, and supported Bagatelle on their farewell tour to name a few. Tootawl recorded his debut EP with producer Christian Best (Mick Flannery, Jack O' Rourke) at Monique Studios which received widespread national radio airplay, and toured extensively (London, Berlin, Edinburgh, San Francisco & Los Angeles). He also had the title track of this EP played in an episode of the Netflix original series 'You Me Her'.
In November of 2017,
Tootawl has just released his second EP, Twist Of Paranoia, which has received national radio airplay in Ireland and the US, and is in preparation to record his first full length LP this year.

Kieran Le Cam

Hi. I'm Kieran. And I want to change the world.
A few years ago, I was hit with a mental disease that put my whole world into question, and after much thought and ongoing healing, I decided to try to make the world a better place.
I want to write songs that help you feel a little better about the state of our world, and our problems. Your problems.
When you're down, you sometimes just need a smile to brighten your day, a stupid joke to make you laugh or a song to sing along to. I don't have much but I have those.
But to make that dream come true, I need the right people by my side.
I'll need support. And that's where you come in.
Help me change the world.
