“Cooper’s music, in any of its forms, seems drunk on the intermingling of folk traditions, searching for a spot between them all that renders the strange familiar and vice versa." Cooper plays lap steel guitar and sings, he is an improviser and composer, song-maker, a visual and installation artist; film and video maker and radio arts producer. Initially a folk-blues guitarist he is as responsible as anyone else for ushering in the acoustic blues boom in the U.K. in the mid ’60s. We’re delighted to welcome him to Glasgow for this set.

Please note that Tashi Dorji, who was scheduled to appear at the festival, has been unable to travel to the UK.
