Children's musician Nick Cope plays his catchy songs with guitar and animations to a family audience at the Belgrade Theatre.
Nick Cope is playing the Belgrade Theatre on Saturday 17 April 2027, with the show starting at 2pm. It's a family concert, and the premise is simple: he's lost his favourite bobble hat, the one with the wobbly bobble, and he needs the audience to help him find it.
If you've got kids and haven't come across him before, Cope is a children's musician who's been writing and recording for families for over a decade. He performs with his guitar and animations to sell-out crowds across the country, and his following grew through the success of the CBeebies show Nick Cope's Popcast. His songs range from the mundane to the poignant, covering everything from changing nappies in 'The Baby's Done A Poo' to the impact of losing a relative in 'Nana's Noodles'.
He's earned a fair bit of praise from people who don't usually write about children's music. Steve Lamacq of BBC Radio 6 Music called him 'the Ray Davies for the pre-teen generation', and Stewart Lee described him as 'the indie-surrealist kids' entertainer Robyn Hitchcock and Syd Barrett, foolishly distracted by cult status'. The Coventry date is part of a six-venue tour running from 22 March to 28 August 2027.
