We don’t take advance table bookings M&P’s Early-Evening Gigs, just make sure you get down early to bagsy the best seats in the house! Charlie Cooper writes vintage soul, updated perfectly, sung with deep and husky soul-pipes! Not only comparable with classic voices like Dusty Springfield and Shirley Bassey but also up there with modern soul divas Alice Russell and Sharon Jones, Charlie is a vocal force to be reckoned with. The songs emerge from another time, influenced by the classic songwriting and arranging of Bacharach and Hal David, accompanied by grooves akin to old school Stax and Motown. This paired down piano solo gig will showcase this talented artist in an intimate setting. “Superb talent and excellent musicality” “Great charm and positivity coupled with that little bit of magic which all good performers have” – JOOLS HOLLAND “Unmissable talent and endearing humility” – VIVA MAGAZINE Plus it’s HAPPY HOUR 5-6:30pm -> 2 drinks = FREE PIZZA -> 2 house cocktails = £15 Posted In: Saturday 24th May Tagged: mjf
