Biography
Pyke was born in Peckham in South London. He grew up listening to Joni Mitchell, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Marley, Michael Jackson, Joan Armatrading and The Beatles. His mother, Rix Pyke, used to be in a comedy trio feminist group in the 1970s.[1] Pyke attended The Brit School for Performing Arts to study music production and performance.[1] He released his debut EP "Just Cosmo" in 2017.[2]
Artistry
Pyke has been compared to King Krule because of his eclectic musical influences. The Guardian described his music as, "a fusion of jazz, 2-tone, Tyler the Creator and, inexplicably, the Kooks."[3] Pyke describes his combination of soul, jazz, reggae and hip-hop as, "spacey, beautiful, and lazy."[2]
