Erland Cooper Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

Erland Cooper is a Scottish composer, producer & multi-instrumentalist originally from Orkney. As a solo artist, he has released three acclaimed studio albums, with 4 additional companion LPs & multiple EPs, including a trilogy of work inspired by his childhood home, as well as themes of nature, people, place & time. His work combines field recordings with traditional orchestration & contemporary electronic elements. Through music, words and cinematography he explores landscape, memory & identity. He develops these themes further by partnering with artists, writers and poets. Cooper also works across mixed media projects including installation art, theatre & film. He’s widely known for burying the only existing copy of the master tape of his first classical album in Scotland, deleting all digital files & leaving only a treasure hunt of clues for fans and his record label alike to search for it. The tape has just been found. “..speaks to a universal emotional truth” MOJO “serves as a commentary on the disposable nature of music and the immediacy with which it is delivered” The Times “at once calming and euphoric, with a beauty that’s its own justification” UNCUT “..exploring the place where electronic and classical music can co-habit” The Quietus
 “Wonderfully nuanced songwriting matched to lung-bursting string arrangements.” CLASH
 “like a spiritually charged requiem for the pristine landscapes that inspired it” Electronic Sound “Nature’ s songwriter” Guardian
