Mick Cooke (born 15 December 1973) is a Scottish multi-instrumentalist who was the trumpet player of the indie band Belle & Sebastian for fifteen years before leaving in 2013 to concentrate on composing full-time.
Cooke was a founding member of Belle & Sebastian, although he did not officially join until their third album (he was prevented from doing so because his other band, Hardbody, was under contract with Sony).
Whilst he was known to sing at some concerts (including a rendition of "This Guy's In Love With You"), the only official Belle & Sebastian release with Cooke on lead vocals is "The Monkeys Are Breaking Out of The Zoo", from the charity compilation Colours Are Brighter.
Cooke also plays in the ska band The Amphetameanies and appeared on the 2007 Idlewild album, Make Another World.
He has worked as an arranger for artists such as Franz Ferdinand, Phil Cunningham, and Jason Donovan.
