After what we thought was a rather successful first gig of the year last night (huge thanks to Dead Ceremony, Shiners, and Cairobi), we’re pleased to announce that headlining the next Hopscotch event on 16 February is the wonderful Will Joseph Cook.

Kent-based Will Joseph Cook has amassed a well-deserved sizeable following in only a few months on the back of two EPs of alternative pop perfection – You Jump I Run and Proof Enough. Now signed to Atlantic Records, 2016 is shaping up to be a very big year for the youngster.

Londoners Saltwater Sun have been getting rave reviews from all our favourite blogging pals recently, with many tipping their scuzzy indie pop as one to watch this year.

Also heralding form the big smoke, Venice Trip have been making waves for their psychedelic sounds, managing to find their way through the haze to some infectious rhythm and blues.

You can buy tickets for the event at WeGotTickets right now for £5 and stay updated with information on Hopscotch’s Facebook page.
