Julian Cope

    21. říjen 1957

    Julian Cope je britský hudebník a spisovatel, který se proslavil jako vůdčí postava post-punkové scény. Kromě hudební kariéry je uznávaným autorem a badatelem, který se hluboce zabývá neolitickou kulturou a megalitickými památkami. Jeho spisy se často vyznačují kritickým pohledem na moderní západní společnost a zájmem o okultismus a pohanské tradice. Cope je známý svým vášnivým obhajováním neznámé a undergroundové hudby a svým jedinečným přístupem ke kulturnímu komentáři.
