Ultimate Painting’s Jack Cooper released his debut solo album recently on Trouble In Mind Records. The album “Sandgrown”, released last month via Trouble In Mind Records, is a sparse yet hypnotic listening, Its a record inspired by Cooper’s coastal hometown of Blackpool, England. Jack comments on the record , I think part of the reason I’ve made this record is a way of processing the past and where I am now. Like, what the hell is this? Going back to your original point, I think it references every stage of my life and the “Blackpool” of the album is just a frame in which I can tell stories, be self-indulgent and self-analytical, process memories or try and recreate places and feelings. It’s the first time I’ve sort of set myself a framework and it was weirdly liberating.
