COOPER MOORE
Cooper Moore is an artist / producer from Chicago. Emerging on the scene from a young age, Cooper's take on indie rock is immediately recognized. From the Strokes-esque "Never Let Go" to synth driven "Since Then" evoking the ethos of Frank Ocean or Bon Iver, and recent "Back Burner" which feels like "Dijon/Mk.gee's new Alt-R&B sound was hit by a lightning strike sent straight from James Murphy himself," Moore's small catalog has already demonstrated a range of sonic capabilities and invigorated audiences with a contagious sense of fast-paced growth & evolution.
​
Cooper’s musical journey began early, learning guitar at age 5, performing original music by age 7, and playing in front of 1,500 people at just age 8 as he placed 2nd in the BeatlesFest Soundalike Competition. Teaching himself Garageband at age 12, Moore began to record his tracks, landing him spots in Interlochen Arts Acandemy's music camps & a summer program at NYU's Clive Davis Institute. Cooper is now a full time student at the Clive Davis Institute.
​
In June 2025, Cooper Moore released his debut "The Long Run" EP. Featuring indie rock grit, alt country twang, electronica arrangements, folk-derived lyricism, and pop sensibilities, this EP is sure to satisfy a range of ears. Met with immediate excitement, Moore performed the EP in full at a sold out release show at Chicago's Color Club.
Moore, now living in New York, has a growing following in the city. While developing an impressive catalogue of production/writing credits, Cooper stays focused on his debut LP & continues to excite audiences with his captivating performances. Stay tuned for the album in 2026.
"It's been a privilage to watch Cooper's artistic development over the years. He shows an increased maturity in his musical and lyrical choices."

"[Never Let Go] is a perfect antidote for these cold winter nights, delivering an upbeat and vibrant indie rock sound with a bouncy nature that has some moments that made us double check to see if he collaborated with Dr. Dog."
- Will Oliver, We All Want Someone to Shout For​​
​
"He's wry, quick-witted, has a wonderful intuitive feel for the rhythm of language and understands the fine line of writing accessible and unique melodies and chord progressions."
