Cooper was surrounded by the sounds of classic country and folk music from an early age.

By his teenage years, Cooper was performing in coffee houses and clubs around Kansas City, honing his skills as a singer, songwriter and guitarist. In the 1970s, Cooper landed a record deal with Elektra Records and released his acclaimed self-titled debut album in 1972. Through the 70s and 80s, he built his reputation on the club circuit. 

Over his 50+ year career, Cooper has amassed a catalog of 30+ albums and continues to tour actively. His 32nd studio album, “The Ghost of Tucumcari,” was released on May 17, 2024. Artists lending their voices to this project are Lyle Lovett, Hayes Carll, Susan Gibson, Mando Saenz, Darden Smith, Shake Russell, and Libby Koch.
