    Hailed as “The future sound of Radio 1” by Zane Lowe, JP Cooper is fast becoming a household name.  Born in Manchester on the 2nd November 1983, this self-taught singer/songwriter is best known for featuring on the single Perfect Strangers by Jonas Blue.  The song was certified platinum in the UK and reached number 2 in the UK singles chart.

    Soon after the success of Perfect Strangers, JP Cooper was back with his follow-up solo single September Song which also placed highly in the UK charts, and is the lead song on his forthcoming debut album Raised Under Grey Skies.  The new album will be released on 22nd September 2017 and is available to pre-order right now.

    The track listing for “Raised Under Grey Skies” is as follows:

    1. Raised Under Grey Skies
    2. September Song
    3. She’s On My Mind
    4. Good Friend
    5. Wait
    6. Table For Two
    7. The Only Reason
    8. Passport Home
    9. Closer
    10. All This Love
    11. Change
    12. Beneath The Streetlights & The Moon
    13. In The Silence

    And if you fancy the deluxe version, there are 7 extra songs to enjoy!

    15. Masterpiece
    16. Tidal Wave
    17. Party
    18. Perfect Stranger (JP Cooper Version)

    20. September Song – Guitar acoustic
    21. Passport home – Piano acoustic

    JP Cooper is signed to Island Records and has been influenced by music legends such as Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder and Björk.  Early on in his career, he even connected with a Gospel Choir in Manchester.  This comes as no surprise after hearing JP’s soulful vocals on tracks September Song and his latest single Passport Home.

    Lyrically, JP’s songs are always full of depth and really feel like he is telling a story.  It is this ability to connect with his audience that leaves us feeling like we have just walked a mile in his shoes.

    If you fancy seeing him perform your favourite songs live then you are in luck, as he has just announced a European tour! JP will be visiting cities all over Europe from London to Paris, Barcelona to Milan, Helsinki to Berlin and may more in between.  Full details of the tour and ways to get tickets are available on JP’s official website www.jpcoopermusic.com.

    Something you may not know about JP Cooper is that he also wrote a song called Birthday which features on the soundtrack for the movie Fifty Shades Darker, and he also recently performed as part of a huge line-up of artists at Capital’s Summertime Ball!

    Something tells us here at CelebMix that we’re going to be hearing a lot more about JP Cooper in the future!
