DOUBLE ALBUM NEWS: Drew Cooper "This Life"

DOUBLE ALBUM NEWS: Drew Cooper "This Life"

The husky, soul-soaked baritone of Drew Cooper’s voice is no doubt the very foundation his entire sound is built on. It’s a well-worn timbre that in one moment haunts you with the Teddy Pendergrass-esque stylings of old Motown, and the next moment you’re bobbing your head up and down in that involuntary way that only pure rock n roll can invoke. His hodge-podge of music stylings has over the years kept music fans engaged and venue owners happy, but it was in 2018 with the release of his acclaimed album “White Horse” that it became crystal clear that Cooper had reached new levels as a songwriter. His new double album “This Life” is absolute proof of that fact. The first single “Madeline” is already out and about, an ear-catching prelude to Part 1 of the double album release on April 15th on Atomic Javelina Records.

No. Am I country? No. I just sing it and play it how I feel it.”
