JACK COOKSON – SINGLE REVIEW


Jack Cookson – Ironashley 
Jack Cookson - Ironashley

Release Date: 22nd September 2019

Jack Cookson is a bit of a wandering minstrel and one hell of a troubadour, but his latest release is a departure for him musically and it’s a real trip for the rest of us. ‘Ironashley’ emerges from the tall reeds of the Southern American swamps with a steely guitar sound, wending violins and an ‘O Brother Where Art Thou?’ stomp. Cookson’s voice has a timeless authenticity to it which instantly appeals and he has a story to tell which pretty much seals the deal. Pitched somewhere between Harbottle & Jonas, Laura Marling and Crazy Arm, Jack Cookson is the real deal so if you can catch him live or just fall in love with this track then you’ll be doing yourself a favour and I’m pretty sure Cookson will be happy too.


Live Dates:

22nd September – Bristol Folk House, Bristol w/India Electric Co.
