Jacko Hooper is an artist that I have known for years now, since he was part of one of my previous projects, "Pop'N'rocK Radio". He was a regularly broadcast artist. A few singles later, he is back with "Muttered Words". And honestly, his talent for writing will always amaze me. While I have written over 300 songs to throw in the trash, I am still blown away by the talent of some artists to write such jewels of poetry. If we add to that, the so particular and warm voice of Jacko Hooper, we obtain a particularly strong result on the emotional level. Sometimes you have to get rid of a relationship, which is better to end, after trying all possible solutions. The song evokes these difficult choices we have to make sometimes, with a certain melancholy and a heavy emotional atmosphere. Once again, Jacko Hooper proves that he masters all aspects of his music. An "underrated" artist who shouldn't stay that way for very long. His fanbase has grown a lot since the last time we crossed paths, and it's likely that his rise is starting to pick up speed.. Included in our "Indie Folk" playlist, and of course, you will now hear this amazing track on the Indie Music Radio.

Jacko Hooper's point of view :

The track is bittersweet, melancholic and speaks of needing to leave a relationship or situation for the greater good having exhausted all other options. It's time to move on but the journey is going to be difficult for everyone involved.

Biography :

Jacko Hooper is a singer-songwriter from Brighton, UK, who combines mesmerising soulful vocals, beautiful guitar and achingly honest words by seeking influence from the things around him that mean the most. Originally writing in the comfort of his bedroom with just the four walls around him to judge, he first began to venture out after a fortuitous video was filmed by a close friend and uploaded onto YouTube. This led on to the demand for him to head out and start playing shows around the UK to his ever growing and committed following. Jacko quickly caught the eye of French videographer Rod Maurice of Le Hiboo who invited him to Paris to headline the Café De Lanse, quickly followed by a short European tour. Jacko’s tour history includes performances with James Blunt, Michael Kiwanuka, Freya Ridings, Amber Run and many more. Jacko also runs one of the South Coasts leading independent promotions companies and boutique record labels; Folklore Sessions and has released records with Bess Atwell, George Ogilvie, Oktoba and others.
