COPUS is a Renaissance Funk band that presents conscious lyrics intertwined with beautiful melodies.
www.music.copusmusic.com/digitalpackage

Hey Musical Activists!
One of the coolest things about Renaissance Funk is that it helps bring Social Justice to the world.
Music has always been connected to Social Justice. And nowadays, that can take the form of Jazz, Spoken Word, Funk, Hip-hop and even classical music.
But at the end of the day, music for music's sake is not enough for us... and we're guessing maybe not enough for you?
We are composer/pianist Wendy Loomis and poet/spoken word artist Royal Kent. Together we formed a band called COPUS and we think this music will be right up your alley.
If you like ditsy, non-meaningful, flavor-of-the-month music streaming online... then this may not be for you.
On the other hand, if you believe music has a purpose such as to create beautiful melodies while conveying a strong message, then Renaissance Funk is for you and COPUS has your back!
Tom Kidd from Music Connection Magazine said: “Think of COPUS as the love child of Jack Kerouac and Grace Jones.”
Do you feel conscious lyrics, infectious rhythms and dynamic melodies? We wrap those together.
And guess what?
This music is not for everyone.
But if you believe in working hard and playing hard... then you will listen hard and dance even harder if you enter the world of Renaissance Funk.
We decided to write this post to you because we figured we might have something in common.
Perhaps you also are tired of the superficial bubblegum or the violent-infused lyrics in so much of today’s music.
Perhaps - like us - you long for something more sophisticated and rewarding for the soul.
So we would like to invite you into our world by way of a gift.
By clicking on this post you will be able to enjoy Renaissance Funk immediately.
We are going to gift you our most successful song ever. It's called “We All Bleed Red” that earned the W.A.M. Award for ‘best social justice/peace song’ for 2021.
But this is not just any track. And it is NOT streaming.
We are going to gift you a high-resolution track that is literally 100x better quality than streaming.
In addition, we also want to send you live video of COPUS performing the piece at the prestigious San Francisco Jazz Center.
Yes, we play real instruments for real people.
And that video is not anywhere on the internet. Mostly because we want to share it with people that care and understand that Social justice is a core value in music.
And we want to share this with you at no cost.
If you love the power of the lyrics in the music of Bob Dylan, Smokey Robinson and the groovy, jazzy vibes of Esperaza Spalding then you are going to love COPUS.
You might feel like Armenian-born Katrina from San Francisco who says that “the words and music fit like a hand in a glove.”
That is COPUS.
And since this is the internet, after all, you may be saying to yourself right now ... “Why are you giving this away at no cost?”
Two reasons!
First and foremost, we think the lyrics and music will inspire and uplift you.
Second, we trust that when you check out the track and videos you will end up falling in love with COPUS and become a part of our extended family.
And that is what we would love!
When you click on this post you will be directed to a cool little page where you can tell us where to send your curated track and videos.
Looking forward to having you join the COPUS family.
Founders of COPUS:
Wendy Loomis
Royal Kent

Just Plain Quotes
"Money is worst reason to be motivated NOT to do anything. Instead of letting those concerns STOP you, use it to motivate yourself to find an alternate solution that bypasses money. You will soon find that your own resourcefulness is worth far more than a pile of paper money." –Brian Austin Whitney
