About the Band
Cousin Jack are a singing group based in Bude, Cornwall, made up of 10 singers and 4 accomplished musicians. They perform a wide variety of songs spanning Irish and folk to Cornish and shanties, always with rich harmonies at the heart of everything they do. Their musicians keep the entertainment flowing with a range of instrumentals between songs, ensuring there's never a dull moment.
Formed in September 2018, the group enjoy performing all over the South West at events and venues of all kinds. They are closely linked with the RNLI, with three operational volunteers and one retired crew member who remains an active fundraising volunteer — a cause close to the hearts of everyone in the group.
Cousin Jack have been proudly supported on their journey by The Blanchminster Trust, Tintagel Brewery, The Cobweb Inn, Wooda Farm Holiday Park and Bar 35.
