CW Cooper
CW Cooper is an up and coming country music artist from Texas with country boy good looks, amazing stage presence and raw god given talent.
C. W. Cooper was born and raised in Odessa Texas. He started playing the violin at age four, guitar at age five. He gave up the violin and pursued his love of the guitar and country music.
At age nineteen C. W. started a band named "Silverado". C. W. spent the next ten years touring the Southern United States, playing venues such as Billy Bob's Texas, Gilley's, Cowboys, Graham Central Station, Luckenbach Dance Hall, Aradillo World Headquarters, Broken Spoke and Western Palms. C. W. opened for some big names like "Waylon Jennings", "Willie Nelson", "The Charlie Daniels Band" and many others.
C. W. was living his dream until the death of a band member unraveled the entire band and C.W's world. At that point C. W. continued playing music but on a smaller more local scale, while he followed different career pursuits. All the while C. W.'s love of country music and talent grew.
After a long break from the lime light, he is ready to jump back on the tour bus, relatively speaking. C. W. is ready to show the world that he has what it takes to make it to the top this time.
