Robbie Cooper's CD "Drowning in Reality" is a mixture of sequenced

electronic and live music played by some of the finest musicians in the

industry.

Tony Levin on the Chaphman Stick, known for his studio work with Peter

Gabriel and his playing live with Seal. Producer Steve Burgh on guitar,

bass, and keys, known for his work on Billy Joel's "Stranger" as well as his

work with Willie Nelson and Phoebe Snow. Live horns, contributed by the

Uptown Horns, are known for their work with the Rolling Stones, and live

strings thicken this already jam packed star-studded CD. Lets not leave out

drummer Eric Parker (Joe Cocker, Faith Hill, Warren Zevon) who gives this

already rock steady foundation a powerful back drop to Cooper's pleasant

sounding melodic vocal style.

Besides Robbie's most recent recording and performance ventures he also has

a musical past that includes being signed to A&M records with the band 7

Minutes, singer/songwriter in the band Thurman Fry, who was chosen to

receive the talent searchfirst ever discovery to disk talent search by

toronto radio station CFNY FM, and also other recording sessions with Muscle

Shoals, from Muscle Shoals Alabama.

Cooper, a founding member of the very popular toronto based Over the

Garden Wall, has been performing Genesis covers since 1985, and paved the

way for a large amount of Genesis clone bands over the last 20 yrs. After 10

very successfull years with OTGW, Robbie relocated to Utica, NY and formed

the first version of Seconds Out with members of the then popular Syracuse

band 805.

Coopers new cd is world class, as well as his two others ("the hardway" &

"Songs of Serenity: relax unwind and meditate") and has been seeing airplay

on several radio stations in Canada as well as Europe, Poland, and the

Netherlands. As Cooper explains "The creative process working with such

giants in the music industry was an experience Ill never forget. I am very

excited to take some of my new material and showcase it for the public. We

will be adding a few original tracks to our seconds out show. I cant wait

to perform them in a live setting."

Combining classic Genesis with Robbie's red hot originals should make

for an incredible performance not to be missed!
