Formed by well-known poet/spoken word artist Royal Kent and ASCAP award-winning composer/pianist Wendy Loomis in 1998, COPUS is a world rhythm jazz band that presents powerful lyrics, beautiful melodies, and messages of hope and change to the conscious listener. In addition to Kent and Loomis, the ensemble includes the talents of flutist Monica Williams, bass player Patrick Mahon, drummer Greg McRay, and percussionist Santie Huckaby. COPUS has recorded two CDs; developed an independent label; appeared on webcasts, TV, and radio; established 11 websites; and performed at clubs, theatres, festivals, and galleries throughout the Bay Area, Los Angeles, Nashville, and Atlanta. Adamant about bringing a positive message into this troubled world, the group discovered that they are not alone. Said one fan, "COPUS is not a band - it's a movement!" "COPUS is a musical group with some of the most talented musicians that I have yet come across. The music is a mixture of spoken word, jazz, a touch of blues, and a hint of classical styles...the music that is created is absolutely masterful.” (Michael Allison, Associate Writer, MusicDish.com) http://www.copusmusic.com http://www.myspace.com/ End
