Multi-talented Jarvis at Kasbah in Coventry

Also an actor, director, composer and producer, Cosmo writes songs about topics including alienation and religion.

The 21-year-old already has two albums under his belt and his first single Gay Pirates, a poignant yet rousing story of two men whose forbidden love leads to them being forced to walk the plank, has had more than 300,000 views on Youtube and has been lauded by Stephen Fry and NME magazine.

Cosmo Jarvis is, as Brian Eno has suggested, a new kind of artist.
