Jarvis Cocker has launched his weekly Bedtime Stories series on Instagram, revealing he'll read a story every Sunday.

Yesterday (5 April), Jarvis Cocker announced his new Instagram Bedtime Stories series, writing, "I know it can be hard getting off to sleep at night at the moment so, as of tonight, I will be posting a bedtime story- read by yours truly - every Sunday evening."

Cocker uploaded his first story while in lockdown last night (5 April), which sees him read Times Square in Montana by Richard Brautigan.

His story series comes after Cocker took part in Light in the Attic's livestream on Saturday (4 April). During his "Domestic Disco" set, he played songs by David Bowie, The Cure, Stereolab, and more.

Last month, JARV IS... delayed their debut album until September due to the coronavirus crisis.

Jarvis Cocker's Bedtime Stories series continues this Sunday (12 April) via Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube.
