Gossip

Lyndsey Cockwell is a songwriter and musician from the UK. A multi-instrumentalist, she has experimented in many different genres, but central to all her projects is her unique and mesmerising voice, rich melodies and harmonies, and the stories woven by her lyrics. She currently performs with acoustic guitar in the classic singer/songwriter format, accompanied by other musicians from time to time.

Lyndsey began with a classical training on the piano, by 16 she had switched to guitar and began writing pop melodies. Meanwhile she began deconstructing sounds and experimented with musique concrete techniques, worked with Charles Hayward (ex This Heat), and became involved with the London experimental music scene. Somewhere in the middle of all this she had a near miss with Morrissey's guitarist Boz Boorer, and her ear for melody was spotted by Alex Patterson of The Orb who produced a version of her song 'Tiny Snatch Of Daylight'. In 2009 the track was unearthed on a KLF website and described as "Quite lovely". Her own version of the song appeared on her Debut EP 'Lyndsey Cockwell', released in 2004.

Inspired by a Juana Molina concert, Lyndsey bought herself a loop station - the perfect tool to blend live improvisations, pre-recorded sound and her songs. Her 'Live 2005' album showcases the results of her experiments with a snappy add-subtract approach. 2005 also saw Lyndsey collaborate with Maxine Bueret on her 'Departure of the Slam-Door trains' exhibition. Lyndsey produced three sonic compositions using both recordings of the trains and the passengers on board.

In 2007 Lyndsey used bass guitar and her loopstation to provide a live soundtrack for contemporary dance when she collaborated with Dan Watson on his piece 'An untold amount of steps', premiered at the Place Dance Theatre in London.

After years of traveling and playing shows in the UK, USA, and all over Europe, Lyndsey relocated from London to Berlin. Berlin based collaborations have seen her joining the indie-pop band Dominique as guitarist and vocalist, forming an accordion driven acoustic duo - the Wooden Dresses, and working with Sheila Chipperfield (ex Elastica), Rae Spoon and Cindy Wonderful (Scream Club).

In 2009 Lyndsey formed the Berlin Pop Choir www.berlinpopchoir.de - a weekly community choir open to everyone and featuring original arrangements of Lyndsey's favorite songs. Numbers have swelled to over 100 people now gathering each Tuesday to share their love of singing. The Berlin Pop Choir have performed at Fusion festival in Germany and appeared on The Voice of Germany live TV final and ARD's Klein Gegen Groß programme. In 2013 Lyndsey founded the Berlin Pop Ensemble to take her choral arrangements and choir concept to the next level.
