Drew has always had a strong can do attitude that doesn’t let anything stop him or get in his way. A self-taught guitar player, who never let the blisters on virgin fingertips slow him down. His lyrics are inspired by the sounds of his past, his strong love of his family, and the country he holds dear. Son, brother and most importantly, Daddy are all names bestowed upon Drew. The music that he writes shows that strong family bond and commitment to the country values he was raised with. You can feel his heart when you see his smile, and you can hear his relentless love of music in every chord he plays. He has carried the love of music with him throughout his entire life.
He grew up on Garth Brooks, Chris Ledoux, and Bruce Springsteen. At the age of 23 he was drawn to the red dirt scene by the serenades of Radney Foster, Stoney LaRue, Cross Canadian Ragweed, and Pat Green who have all inspired the music he plays today.
On stage in front of 12 people or 15,000 people you will always catch Drew smiling, laughing and entertaining the crowd with a charisma that is second to none.
He always knows how to put on the best show possible, tailored to the venue. Drew has played festivals and major venues, but still loves playing his local bars.

“Drew Cooper should absolutely be a name to watch out for in chicken fried country rock. Outlaw country radio should be all over this guy.””
“Cooper’s writing, while sitting firmly in the modern country vein, has a lot of the grease and grit of ‘80s Americana rock. There’s a hint of Petty here, a dash of Springsteen there, and a Waylon Jennings-shaped stain covering the whole damn thing.””
“We thought he’d be a gymnast, but he’s getting better at this music thing.””
