DonkeyBox

DonkeyBox is a British alternative rock band from London. They formed in 2002 at Imperial College London and instantly caught the attention of the student population with their anthemic singalongs. After leaving the university scene they recorded their first demo EP Backstage Pass in June 2007.

Scott Cooper

Scott Cooper writes and plays laid back-to-basics folky pop music that's firmly rooted in a love and appreciation of life's tiniest and oft-missed details. "Tiny Increments" features 11 catchy, sun-kissed tunes, with once accessible surfaces worn raw by bare-bones accompaniment and a rugged alt-country twang.

Now Craig is just about grown up and every year he still makes the long pilgrimage down to the south-west from his landlocked and gritty home city of Wakefield, West Yorkshire.
