JP Cooper - Colour Me In Gold Shed Sessions Review

This is a song which I came across unexpectedly as I scrolled through the subscriptions list of my Youtube channel. I've loved all three videos of JacksGap's series 'Shed Sessions', not just the music but the way they're filmed and the authenticity of the chosen location.

However, JP Cooper's 'Colour Me In Gold' struck me the most as it was so unexpected. I hadn't heard of him or his music before this and so when an angelic falsetto voice hit my ears it was a bit of surprise! Additionally, the structure of this song is soothing with a falling chord progression on the guitar and whilst Cooper does his thing with all the licks, tricks and flicks possible you can't go wrong.

I thought that the lyrics and meaning of the song was nicely unconventional for what love songs usually are, making an engaging change. Also, because his image and style isn't typical of a acoustic guitar playing singer/songwriter I found it all pleasantly refreshing.
