SUMMARY:Dana Cooper & David Starr Live
DESCRIPTION:Dana Cooper's lifelong passion & devotion to music began at age 2 in Kansas City. His father\, George\, was a huge influence. One of Dana's earliest memories is of his father taking him to the Calico Cat\, popping a coin in the jukebox and listening to Dana sing along with Hank Williams & Ernest Tubb.\n\nAt age 20 a move to LA resulted in a record deal with Elektra Records where he recorded his first album with members of "The Section" Russ Kunkel and Leleand Sklar\, as well as other luminary players Jim Horn\, Al Perkins\, Jim Gordon\, Joe Osborne\, and Lee Holdridge. This album still wins accolades today and was recently reissued on the Warner/Japan label.\n\n\n\nDana's NEW CD "I Can Face The Truth" recently debuted at #20 on the NACC Folk Chart! In this release Cooper faces hard truths head on with humor and heartfelt expression. Joining forces with Co-Producer and multi-instrumentalist Dave Coleman the two enlisted some of the best songwriters\, singers\, and musicians from the US and Ireland. Collaborators in the studio include Tom Kimmel\, Kim Richey\, Jonell Mosser\, Maura O'Connell\, Brother Paul Brown\, David Starr\, and Gillian Tuite.\n\n\nDavid Starr possesses "a compelling voice\, something truly special\, both accessible and passionate" (Elmore)\, that has been honed releasing ten albums\, touring internationally\, and opening shows for esteemed artists such as John Oates (Hall & Oates)\, Karla Bonoff\, The Steel Wheels\, Survivor\, and more. His new project\, Touchstones\, will feature a new digital single release every month for one year. \n\n\n\nDuring a year where COVID-19 stopped the world in its tracks\, Starr took time to reflect on and experience anew the music that shaped his own. Touchstones follows Starr's acclaimed February 2020 record\, Beauty and Ruin. Produced and arranged by John Oates\, the collection of songs was inspired by Of What Was\, Nothing Is Left\, a novel written by Starr's grandfather in 1972.
