Jamie Cook
[modifica | modifica wikitesto]Jamie "Cookie" Cook, (born 8 July 1985) is the band's guitarist and also provides backing vocals. Cook and Turner are neighbours in High Green [1], and like Turner, Cook asked for a musical instrument as a Christmas present in 2001, receiving his first electric guitar [2]. Cook has been the band's most outspoken member, going on record as saying he "fucking hates the [print] news" and defending the band's numerous successive records by saying "I couldn’t see us being like Coldplay, it’d just be fucking boring. You tour your album for three years and play the same fucking gig night after night. It must really be depressing. Some people might enjoy doing that, but we couldn't." [3].
Like most of the band, Cook continues to live in Sheffield with his parents. He has been described as "the bullishly confident blue-collar lad [of the group]"[4].
