I write and record songs a whole lot now. I used to go under the moniker of Cooper. I did a project in 2011 where I released an original song every day throughout the year. Since my Cooper365 Project ended and gained a kind of friendly following I’ve been a little more open about the fact that sometimes I write songs and sometimes I record them, and so I release things as Ardie Collins now. I describe my style as a sort of jangly, folky bawl, but that’s mainly because I’m unbearably self-derisory. Some people seem to like it. You can decide for yourself.
These EPs are available for download on my Bandcamp. Out Of Here includes two bonus tracks if you fancied downloading it. You can also head to my YouTube channel where I post original songs and the odd cover song if you’d like to hear more.
If you’re a Last.fm user you can also head to my Last.fm page if you want.
I’m also looking at other ways of distributing my music. I’d say ‘watch this space’ but I’m not a knob.
