Under Wraps Music June 2013 Events

Been a while since the last blog post! Amongst other things I've been over in Germany working at
T O N S P U R E N experimental music festival. Such a great experience and good group of artists and musicians - check out the facebook page here. Looking forward to next year already!

So onto the summer...

June Events

Under Wraps Music and 1:22 present:

JP Cooper - June 5th 2013, Bar 1:22, 120 New Street Huddersfield

Playing a blend of folk, blues, soul and gospel; JP Cooper is an intriguing prospect amongst aspiring British singer-songwriters. Listening to him perform, either alone or with his band, bears witness to an honesty, intensity and power evoked via the simplest of orchestration. His soulfully expressive, unique vocal style, the kind that cuts through a room to hush a chattering crowd in seconds, is utterly bewitching. His unexpected vocal flights hardly prepare you for the intimacy and empathy to follow.

With support from:

Turtle Bus

Doors Open: 8pm Tickets
