Bluebeard and the Desperate Hours are a piano-driven pop-rock band, drawing on the emotional directness of Springsteen, the energetic positivity of Coldplay and the well-crafted arrangements of Elbow.
Led by songwriter and pianist Davy Turner, the band perform melodic, hook-filled songs that place emotional honesty and connection at the centre. The core six-piece line-up of vocals, piano, guitar, bass, drums, trumpet and cello allows the music to move easily between intimacy and scale.
Phil Cooper is a contemporary folk-pop troubadour based in Bristol. He is best known as one third of folk / americana trio The Lost Trades, but has also been performing solo for the best part of two decades, sharing the stage with the likes of Badly Drawn Boy, The Bluetones, Mark Chadwick and many more.
His vocals and varied songwriting have been compared to the likes of James Taylor, Neil Finn (Crowded House), Glenn Tilbrook (Squeeze), Stephen Stills and Glen Hansard. A live performance with Phil is friendly and engaging and you'll be sure to laugh and cry, all whilst tapping your feet, and humming along to the instantly catchy melodies he weaves.
