Jacko Hooper, who impressed us at Sea Monsters back in January, has put a couple of tracks up on Bandcamp. Not an official release, just a free taster while he works on his debut ep. 21, Promises is gentle and fragile, while These Echoes is more upbeat and jaunty. It doesn’t show on Bandcamp, but when you make the download, you also get his cover of Cat Power’s Keep On Running too.
If you’re enjoying Jacko’s voice, and were wondering what it might sound like accompanying electronic music rather than acoustic guitar, then we recommend Luo’s recent Antidote EP (which we wrote about a few weeks back and haven’t stopped listening to since). Jacko features on track three Mistakes.
