Ash Cooke is a multidisciplinary artist based in North Wales UK, who first came to prominence in the late 90′s through the formation of his music group Derrero.
During his time in Derrero the band released 3 critically acclaimed albums and toured with the likes of Super Furry Animals, Catatonia, Sebadoh and Granddaddy as well as collaborating on the film ‘Beautiful Mistake’ with John Cale. The band also recorded three sessions for the legendary John Peel
Following the dissolution of Derrero Cooke has embarked upon a prolific solo career under the name Pulco. Across 15 years and as many albums he has developed a unique brand of uncompromising cut & paste collage pop drawing upon found sound and observational poetry.
Pulco music is created with the barest of tools and is made with intentionally minimal means, just one microphone and an iPad. His autobiographical sketchbook style has characteristically diverse influences from Lou Barlow & The Fall to The Shadow Ring and Young Marble Giants'
