Johnny Coppin - Live at The Folk (March 2025)

Gloucestershire's Johnny Coppin is a singer/songwriter, composer and poetry anthologist. Formerly with the folk-rock band Decameron, his many solo albums include "Forest & Vale & High Blue Hill" (Songs of Gloucestershire), "Edge of Day" - a collaboration with world-famous writer Laurie Lee, and his most recent albums "The Winding Stair" and "Breaking the Silence" with Mike Silver. His clear voice, together with his ability to write fine songs, make his music essentially English in character while having universal appeal. Jack Russell, the Gloucestershire and ex-England wicket-keeper, is a big fan and often used to lead his team in singing one of Johnny's rousing Gloucestershire songs!
