Coppershot's bringing amazing sounds from Jamaica to Bacardi Blink this Saturday. Have you bought your ticket yet?
Founded in 1994, Coppershot Sound boasts an impressive and energetic crew of hardcore music loving Jamaicans. Over the years this sound has been tested, tried and proven true, building a strong following in Kingston, the whole of Jamaica, and worldwide. Despite being dubbed an ‘uptown sound’ Coppershot has proven they have the ingenuity and the right flavour for all crowds.
Founded by Matthew Gray, Jason Henriques and Shaun Anderson, Coppershot has since grown into an enterprise, expanding to 10 members and adding a variety of styles, enabling them to widen their scope to extensive play outs. Members include top selectors such as Jigzagula AKA Jay-Z, Nero P, Mr. Shaun, DJ Donny, DJ Friji, DJ Small Voice, DJ Cut-eye, DJ Sanjay, DJ Cutty and DJ MC. The sound is known for their versatility, playing at events from birthday parties, weddings and stage shows, to clubs and parties.
Their style consists of distinguished remixes, entertaining dubs, unique mixing, scratching and original jams of roots reggae, pop, soca, dancehall, hip hop, reggaeton and R&B. They have attracted overwhelming media attention and the support of artistes alike. Famed deejay Bounty Killer has since become an ardent fan and contributor to the sound’s record box. Understandably Coppershot now boasts several dubs from Sean Paul, Bounty Killer, Mavado, Aidonia, Spragga Benz, Buju Banton, Vybz Kartel, Sizzla, Capleton, Rhiana, Snoop Dogg, Busta Rhymes, Baby Cham, Assassin, Wayne Marshal and every other top DJ in the game and their mix CDs have become world renowned. The “Welcome to Jamrock” culture mix was sought out all over the world and the follow up series have proved to be just as popular.
In December 2008, Coppershot created history by becoming the second ever Jamaican entertainer to perform in Qatar and Bahrain (the first Being Sean Paul) and the first ever dancehall sound to tour the Middle East. They have played to packed arenas and parties all over the world. Coppershot members have also toured with major artistes such as Sean Paul and Baby Cham.
The Coppershot label expanded to a production company, Coppershot Music. They have since produced two of the hottest riddims: No Tampering and Full Clip and more recently the “set up riddim” which spawned hits the hits Backshot Time from Charley Blackz, Screechie by QQ and the bonafide #1 hit on Japan charts Japanese Dance (oh papi) by Sound members Cutty & Nero P also ft. Patexx.
Coppershot Music is where all the leading entertainers flock to do work and to borrow some of its vibes. Coppershot is renowned for “bringing good vibes” and exceeding crowd expectations. See them live at Bacardi Blink this Saturday.
