WILL JOSEPH COOK A MINUTE OF YOUR TIME

18 year-old songwriter Will Joseph Cook has had a stellar year; whether it's dropping track after track of smartly dressed pop or hopping on stage at Glastonbury, the guy has been in dreamworld. Currently readying a second EP, out on Atlantic Records this time, Cook is stepping up yet another gear with 'A Minute Of Your Time', a track drawn from the record which sees release next month. Delivered from the perspective of a downtrodden call centre worker, it's a charmingly odd juxtaposition of desperate lyrics against powerful acoustic strumming, rickety percussion and Cook's vibrant tones. Dedicate at least 2:22 of your own time to this exceptionally talented teen today. - DC
