Beverly Glenn-Copeland
Bio
Beverly Glenn-Copeland is a singer and songwriter who was born in Philadelphia, but moved to Canada in 1961. A classically-trained vocalist, he started his career making folk music, while composing and acting on children’s television series including Mr. Dressup and Sesame Street. Recorded using only an early synthesizer and drum machine, his 1986 album Keyboard Fantasies was discovered by a Japanese record collector in 2015, which lead to a revitalized interest in his work. Today he lives in Sackville, New Brunswick with his wife, Elizabeth Glenn-Copeland, and performs regularly. A documentary about his life directed by Posy Dixon, Keyboard Fantasies: The Beverly Glenn-Copeland Story, came out in 2020.
