Ray Cooper ‘House Concert’ Review
An audience and a living room was all that was required for Ray "Chopper" Cooper to perform a fundraising initiative on behalf of Park Street Music CIC. Cooper bassist and cellist from the established folk rock group Oysterband performed a solo house concert during a night off from the band's Ragged Kingdom Tour. The evening of entertainment was a showcase of songs from Cooper's solo album "Tales of Love War and Death by Hanging." The intimate and enthralling performance captivated the audience imagination as both original compositions and arrangements of traditional works were accompanied by historical tales about heroes, villains and laments.
Park Street Music would like to thank Ray for his kind support and generosity and look forward to the return concert! Further information relating to Ray can be obtained from:
