Bio:
NO TERRAIN is the brainchild of the Toronto, CA based singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and world renowned street performer Aidan Koper. Koper who also astounds audiences with his dangerous, circus-like stunts under the moniker Billions Cobra has graced the ‘The Late Show’ stage with David Letterman, and even displayed his talents for the likes of Ellen Degeneres, Natalie Portman, and the president of Singapore!
For the past 16 years Koper’s musical and performing career has changed and shifted depending on his global location and various collaborations. Koper has worked with artists like: Al P (MSTRKRFT), Sebastien Grainger (Death from Above 1979), Adam Hindle (Born Ruffians), Mike LeRiche (Fake Palms), Leon Taheny, and many others notable players.
Having toured the States with his band The Sick Lipstick, released multiple albums with another project called Germans (one under Arena Rock Records), and traveled the world performing at festivals as Billions Cobra, Aidan Koper is now prepared to share his la
test musical offering as NO TERRAIN.
The self-titled NO TERRAIN EP which is set for release on November 18th, was recorded at Leon Taheny’s Union Sound studio in Toronto. A few of Taheny’s credits as a producer include work with Dilly Dally, Weaves, Owen Pallett, and being the recipient of the first ever Polaris Music Prize for Owen Pallett’s album He Poos Clouds. Musically the NO TERRAIN EP is a five song collection of synth-heavy, melodic gems that embrace the essence of 80’s New Wave while steering clear of any sonic cliches. It is a strong and incredibly inspired debut release that is sure to appeal to fans of groups like Washed Out, Small Black, or New Order.
