Following a SOLD OUT debut headline show at Colours Hoxton in July, Nashville-based singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist corook has announced their return to the UK for a headline tour, including a London headline show at XOYO on December 6th. Tickets will be on sale from 10am from July 7th HERE.
Kicking off at Manchester Academy 3 on December 1st, corook will also play dates across Birmingham, Glasgow, Bristol and London, before closing out the tour at Chalk in Brighton on December 7th – please see below for full listings.
corook has recently shared their latest single, “serious person” – listen HERE. Co-written with 2x Latin Grammy Award-winner Dan Fernandez, “serious person” marks the title track for corook’s upcoming two-part project, with the first EP, serious person (part 1), released in June.
“serious person” follows the breakout popularity of corook’s viral smash, “if i were a fish (ft. olivia barton).” Co-written with their girlfriend Olivia as a response to internet hate whilst feeling emotional, insecure, and out of place, the heart-warming track came together in ten minutes and was then posted to TikTok where it received an incredible response, earning 18.5M views, 2.9M likes and 383.9K shares and counting. With over 25.2K creates, “if i were a fish” has also received support from fellow artists including Charlotte Lawrence, grandson and more. Following the outpouring of love and support on social media, corook and Olivia worked quickly to record a full version of the song plus release an official video featuring special behind-the-scenes moments from the making of the song – watch it HERE. The track is their biggest streaming debut to date, with over 14.3M+ global audio streams and counting. It first premiered on BBC Radio 1’s Future Pop.
corook – pronounced ‘co-rook’ – kicked off their latest, more vulnerable musical era with recent releases, “i’m not doing well” and “CGI,”. Earlier this year, they also celebrated their 28th birthday with their first single of 2023, “the dog” and its heart-breaking music video (co-starring corook and their actual girlfriend) – watch it HERE.
corook has become known for their ability to tackle deeply personal themes in their music and visuals through a humorous lens. Last spring, the genre-busting, Nashville-based musician blessed the world with their debut EP, achoo!, featuring such surprising and insightful tracks as “idk god,” “degree,” “bad friend,” and “sims” in addition to the fan favourite “snakes.” Further releases followed, among them the viral adult lullaby, “it’s ok!,” the unrestrained “BDSM,” the super-hot “hell yeah,” the heartfelt “your mom,” and the ode to self-worth, “smoothie.”
