What's been said...
On rare occasions you realise that what you're listening is what a real singer should be,
someone with a direct connection between soul and voice. Jake Cogan is one of those rare few.

My favourite new singer
Boo Hewerdine
One of folk music's new and exciting artists, with a beautiful, mellifluous voice that seems to
spring forth from the depths of a trance, like rolling mist over Scottish glens. Gorgeous, folkish music,
with an alt-country feel
Edinburgh Festival Review
Later on the Club Tent offers the massively impressive Jake Cogan, yet another of the new
British folk voices emerging at the moment
Americana UK Cambridge Folk Festival Review by Jeremy Searle
If Scotland were looking for a successor to Karine Polwart, and I'm not suggesting it is,
Jake Cogan must surely be on the shortlist for an interview.
