videos for JESUS DOESN'T LIKE ME & KING OF ENGLAND
After the Candyskins called it a day, Mark Cope guitarist and backing singer with the previously signed Geffen band, decided to leave his native Oxford and move out to another university town, Boston. While based here Mark chose to take some of the songs that had been bouncing round his head and record them in an alien format to the guitarist. With Electronica and computers the start of what would become Mark's first solo collection of songs called "Copey" would emerge.
After much pressure from fellow Oxford musicians, Mark returned to Oxford and decided to enlist some help and form a live band. After 10 shows, and 8 ex cowboys, he arrived at the line up as it is now. Currently being touted in the local press as an Oxford Super Group, these include Ady Davey on guitar, Maria Ilett on bass and Richie Wildsmith on drums.
ITS THE OLD STORY BOY meets girl, girl meets boy; their eyes meet across a crowded tube train carriage, there is a tinkle of romantic piano and gently sweeping strings and hearts and minds are set in emotional turmoil . But this is no everyday case of love at first sight. The boy is a suicide bomber, the girl just one of his unsuspecting victims. Can love save the day? In his head hes telling her it wont hurt, wont leave a scar. Dont get closer to me, he implores; hes worried about what his parents would think if they knew. The music carousels as confused thoughts spin through the boys mind. The last thing you hear is an explosion.
Welcome to Mark Cope's world of love and romance.
MARK COPE IS NINE STONE Cowboy and Closer is the standout track on his debut EP, Son Of Elvis, released this month.
