Description
Joe Cocker is a once-in-a-lifetime artist - one who has an unerring ear for songs that fit him best and the transcendent power to transport us to a place in our collective imagination where familiar sounds glow with a new light.
Instantly recognizable for his unique & oh so sensational guttural growl of a voice, Cocker has the uncanny gift of taking well-known songs and recrafting them to instantly make them his own.
It's that voice that powered his show-stopping performances at the Woodstock Festivals of 1969 and 1994, the same voice that took Lennon & McCartney's A Little Help From My Friends and turned it into a Cocker classic and which, cracked and broken, made You Are So Beautiful such a raw and soulful performance.
Whether its his funk, soul, guts & grit rendition of Bob Marley's Could You Be Loved, the ever so soulful Have A Little Faith or his raunchy reading of Randy Newman's You Can Leave Your Hat On, one of Cocker's greatest strengths is his ability to interpret other people's songs, usually transcending the original.
Don't miss the unmistakable voice that is Joe Cocker live in concert this summer!
