Tiger Cooke will be returning with a third album release this month when it is released on October 22nd.
The album ‘Fingertips of the Silversmith‘ was produced by David Geraghty (Bell X1) and recorded in Dublin earlier this year.
The title Fingertips of the Silversmith was inspired by Cooke seeing a photograph of the stained fingers of a friend who was training as a silversmith. Stains caused by the use of acid during the process only appear on the artists hands a few days later. It struck Cooke that this is much like how events in life can affect you long after they have happened, how something can occur in your life that you brush off at the time but much later the ‘stains’ of the event can appear.
The preceeding single ‘Out of Reach’ will be released this Friday October 8th. A nationwide tour will be announced shortly.
