Acclaimed Indie Folk/Americana, Singer/Songwriter Dana Cooper from Nashville is making a stop in Galveston, TX on his National CD Release Tour on November 12, 2022 at Galveston Folk Family Concerts. Dana Cooper is a poet, storyteller, songwriter. Dana's mixture of flat-picking, finger picking, and percussive strumming style is "Legend Among Other Guitarists." His harmonica playing equally impressive. For one person- Dana Cooper delivers a BIG Sound with his Ageless Voice, Rhythm, Thought Provoking Lyrics & Songs. As one critic noted, "he sings like an angel and plays like the devil." Dana cannot be grouped into one style of music. His Latest CD "I Can Face The Truth" charting on 5 Radio Charts including Americana, Indie Folk, Alternative Folk, Alternative Country & Roots.
Dana's New CD is receiving Critical Acclaim with Rave Reviews in American Songwriter, Americana Highways, M Magazine, Houston Chronicle, Goldmine, Americana Rhythms Magazine, Music Mecca and more. Dana is an Americana Treasure".... as stated in Rock is the New Roll. "I Can Face the Truth is an unmitigated triumph, an album that should finally garner Cooper the credit he so decidedly deserves.".... Lee Zimmerman/American Songwriter.
“I Can Face the Truth” is also as melodic as it is thoughtful. A wonderfully realized set of songs from a writer who knows his form inside out.
Andrew Dansby - Houston Chronicle
Come out for a wonderful night of great music and storytelling. Dana will play New Songs as well as Old Favorites. More info at www.danacoopermusic.com
