Modern Nature
A meandering blend of bucolic folk, experimental jazz, and psych-tinged indie rock, Modern Nature is a project led by Blackpool-born musician Jack Cooper, formerly of the acclaimed indie rock outfit Ultimate Painting and the Manchester band Mazes.
Joining Will Young (Beak, Moon Gangs) their new venture took cues from the classic British folk of Bert Jansch and the exploratory jazz of Alice Coltrane, and fused it with elements of the indie rock from which they came, enlisting cellist Rupert Gillett, drummer Aaron Neveu (Woods), and saxophonist Jeff Tobias (Sunwatchers) to complete their ensemble.
