TEASER TRAILER FEATURING MUSIC BY IRON AND WINE TO AIR TOMORROW

New York - Friday, March 29, 2013 - BBC AMERICA announced today, hit original series COPPER, will premiere Sunday, June 23, 10:00pm ET/PT. The first teaser trailer, featuring music by Iron and Wine, will be revealed tomorrow during BBC AMERICA's broadcast of Doctor Who at 8:00pm ET/PT.
