Soul Cooper (NZ)

DOUGHBOY RECORDS PRESENT... Hailing from Napier now based in Wellington, Soul Cooper is a new emerging RnB artist ready to take on NZ. Look out for the album due for release in 2006!

Just quickly: 1982 - I Was born. 2005 - Still breathing... Everything that has happened to me in between then whether it was good or bad, has made me who I am. I'm a very lucky man.

I love playing live. I look forward to doing it more often. So if you want someone to fill in your schedule, if the deal is good then I'm your man. Special moments: Auckland, NZ - Safari Lounge - Gifted & Maori 2 Album Launch After Party. I performed "CRY" with my homeboy DOUGHBOY. Cry is a song about the loss of one of DOUGHBOY's children & the mother of that child was there & was very emotional. It was a speacial event for me.

I am into quite a few different types of music & I think this shows in my songs... Craig David - The reason why I got into songwriting. The Doobie Bros & The Eagles - My first tastes of music from an early age All Motown/Soul artists like Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, The Temptations etc... The old Swingers: Frank, Dean, Nat, Sammy... Ray Charles!!! Of course,I love the ushers, Boyz II Men, UNV, Joose, Solo, Azyet, Tyrese etc etc... I'm a big fan of a whole lot of different genres & artists - Except Crazy Frog... and maybe William Hung. lol

My Voice Box & a microphone An engineer & producer can help sometimes too haha I am my equipment... (Pardon the pun)
