Artist Biography
The beginnings of the dark theatrical pop group Copenhagen go back to early 1999, when vibraphonist/keyboardist Kirsa Wilkenschildt and vocalist Neil Henderson decided to do more than merely write collaboratively. The duo eventually filled out the lineup to include double bassist John Emmerson, drummer Andy Thompson, vocalists Pauline and Jacqui Cuff (formely of Soho), trumpet player John Hutchinson, and violinist Ruth Gottlieb. The collective debuted in June of 2000 with the Raining Again single and followed it in January of 2001 with another single, Home. Both releases were through Super 8. Signed to Flower Shop, the label run by God Machine's/Sophia's Robin Proper-Sheppard, Copenhagen released their debut long-player, Tales From the Forest, in December of 2001. ~ Andy Kellman
