Communion presents:
JP COOPER, Tom McConnell, Union canal,

December 16th, 2012

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, and coupled with a clutch of sensational songs, you will find it almost impossible to believe that he has only been writing seriously for two years and performing solo for barely one.

Comparisons are yet to be made (although they inevitably will be..), but there is nothing derivative about his voice or his song writing.

Since leaving his native Ireland four years ago, Tom has been privileged to participate in a number of musical communities both in the UK and beyond.

Reaching #3 on the iTunes US Christian and Gospel chart as guitarist for Citizens in 2012, as well as fronting Edinburgh’s Tequila Mocking-bird and Seattle’s Ramshackle Orchestra, has allowed Tom to draw from a deep well of musical influences, evident in his own eclectic sound.

In 2011, Acoustic Edinburgh called Tom “a breath of fresh musical air, bringing obvious folk influences blended with a surprising soulful voice and a judicious touch of loop-pedal shenanigans”.
