Jerry Cooper has been playing gigs for the past 20 years. His love for music began while growing up in Virginia, in the Blueridge Mountains. His first paid gig was in St John USVI where he was working on a dive boat and sailing. He continued honing his craft while living in Corolla, NC. "This is where I realized that I could make a living doing what I love the most". After several years playing all over the Outer Banks, he thought it was time to try another beach town. Jerry landed in Charleston S.C where he continued to expand his style of music. He now lives in Nashville, TN
Jerry has played with many talented local and national acts. Most notably Darius Rucker, Javier Colon, and Madonna Nash to name a few.
"I am probably the only musician to move to Nashville to take a break from music, but family comes first". Now that his children are older, he is back at it again! "Other than being with my family, there is nothing I love more then connecting with people while playing songs and telling stories!"
