Houston's Weekend Planning Guide

Palestine, Texas native, Kolby Cooper makes his way to the Bayou City in Armadillo Place this weekend,
Friday May 17, 2019.
      In a recent interview with Tarleton State University's student news paper Copper had to say, “My heroes to me are my dad, Waylon Jennings and the guys from Cross Canadian Ragweed,” Cooper said. “Because my dad introduced me to Texas music and Waylon has been my favorite since I can remember listening to music and Ragweed was the first Texas/Red Dirt band I got into. Those three are the one of the main reasons I do what I do.”

When you ask Cooper to describe his music, he would say the style is modern country mixed with older country. “Describing the sound of music is simple for me,” Cooper said. “It’s really a combination of my two favorite genres rock and country.”
    Kolby Cooper was born from a family of musicians where he grew to fall in love with music at an early age at the age of twelve, when he learned to Play Guitar and then at the age of 15 years old began to write songs.
