Patrick Cooper is a singer/songwriter from New Orleans, Louisiana. The son of a North
Louisiana Hillbilly and a South Louisiana Cajun, he has been playing guitar and singing in
public since he was 12. He started performing in his home town of Shreveport, Louisiana
and then later moved to Baton Rouge where he began writing his own songs. In 1988 he
moved to Santa Cruz, California (where old hippies go to die). He played in coffeehouses,
bars, restaurants, wineries and at private parties as a solo performer or in duos at
numerous venues throughout the West Coast.
Feeling the emotional tug of his home state, Cooper moved back to Louisiana in 2011.
He has had the privilege of opening for such wonderful artists as David Bromberg, Darrell
Scott, Webb Wilder, Chuck Brodsky, Malcolm Holcombe, Beausoleil, Steve Conn, Will
Kimbrough, Mia Borders, Mipso, The War and Treaty, John Craigie, Sugarcane Jane, C. W. Stoneking, The Mulligan Brothers and Paul Thorn.
He is a member of the Roots/Americana Band Cast Iron Cactus. (link hidden)
His album “Gris Gris In Your Face” was released in 2013 and his EP "Somewhat Live" was released in 2020.
