Biography

Nev Cottee first emerged in 2013 with debut album ‘Stations’. Produced by Mason Neely (Wilco/Edwyn Collins) it received high critical praise for its lo-fi psyche inspired songs. Follow up 'Strange News From The Sun’ was released in 2015 on the UK based label Wonderfulsound. 'Arrangements swell and swirl with orchestral flourish as Nev channels Lee Hazlewood and Ennio Morricone to create his own unique sound.' Inspired by the rain-drenched streets of Manchester and the sun-beaten canyons of America Nev third album ‘Broken Flowers’ was released in 2017. A deeply cinematic, string-soaked album rich in atmosphere and brooding ambience that dwells somewhere in the mythical deserts of a Sergio Leone or Wim Wenders movie. 2019 saw the release of Nev’s fourth album ‘River’s Edge’. 'After all these years it feels like I finally know what I'm doing. For some reason I had this image of the River's Edge in my head - a promised land where I wanted to be.' With nods to the late, great Scott Walker, Neil Young and Tom Waits, River's Edge looks to the mythical LA music scene but viewed through a very English lens. In 2022 Nev released his fifth studio album 'Madrid'. A rich musical journey comprising eleven songs, Madrid channels the chaotic charms of the Spanish capital where Nev has recently relocated. 'I love the way life works here. It's organised chaos..'
