from Musical Miles Podcast · host Byron Duffin
Send us Fan MailRoss Cooper is a West Texas-born singer-songwriter, storyteller, and second-generation rodeo cowboy whose music bridges authentic cowboy culture with Texas country, Americana, and the songwriting traditions of the Lone Star State. Raised around Lubbock, Cooper grew up balancing a love of horses with a love of songs, eventually earning a college rodeo scholarship and competing in the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA) before trading the rodeo arena for a life devoted to music.Influenced by legendary Texas storytellers including Guy Clark, Townes Van Zandt, Robert Earl Keen, and Joe Ely, Cooper developed a songwriting style rooted in real experiences—the road, relationships, family, West Texas, and the cowboy life he actually lived. After moving to Nashville, he established himself not only as a recording and touring artist but as a respected songwriter whose songs have been recorded by artists including Randy Rogers, Wade Bowen, and William Clark Green.Albums including I Rode the Wild Horses, Chasing Old Highs, and Lightning Heart have showcased Cooper's ability to combine traditional Western imagery with contemporary country and Americana storytelling. More recently, he released Live From Hotel Turkey, capturing his songs in an intimate setting at the historic Hotel Turkey in Turkey, Texas—a place that has become closely connected to his music.At the heart of Ross Cooper's music is something increasingly rare: authenticity. He isn't simply writing songs about cowboys from the outside—he's writing about a world he knows firsthand. His music carries the grit of the rodeo, the wide-open landscape of West Texas, and the emotional honesty of a songwriter determined to tell stories that mean something.More About Ross Cooper:Website: https://share.google/oxRdZCViwpDoZPlvhFacebook: https://share.google/XyOwO0iCW4U90TyAfInstagram: https://share.google/VENTFZIVjruyEAehLSpotify: https://share.google/SX786yZbwEyFcnK9h🎵 In This Episode:• Ross Cooper interview• Nashville Songwriter• Dusty Vaquero Days• Rodeo Cowboy LifeMORE ABOUT MUSICAL MILES PODCAST:Website: https://share.google/njnmmglKCpu8nX7jnInstagram: https://share.google/PvAJe1qGxIKhYSVZ7Facebook: https://share.google/OcbFlCHb3fSntAVhXTikTok: https://share.google/ikD2YSj8qEMv3ROY2Spotify: https://share.google/ooaz1mIUqHoM9CW9zYouTube: https://share.google/7xkaESL50rsQx93QrSPONSORSHIP INFORMATION:Contact Byron [email protected] TO OUR SPONSORS: Click the links for more infoOur Guitar Sponsor Klos Guitars ~ www.klosguitar.comROPER ~ Wear The West For Discounts on Boots, Shoes and Western Apparel ClICK THE LINK: https://eroper.com/?ref=BYRONDUFFINTIN HAUL ~ 30% DISCOUNTS For our Musical Miles Podcast followers Click the link to shop. https://tinhaul.com/?ref=BYRONDUFFINFOR PODCAST EPISODE SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES:Contact Byron Duffin [email protected]#rosscooper, #nashvillesongwriter, #dustyvaquerodays, #westtexascowboy, #cowboymusic, #songwriter, #countrymusic, #musicalmilespodcast, #PodcastInterview, #MusicalMiles, #songwriterinterview,Support the showTO SUPPORT THE PODCAST DONATE HERE: https://patreon.com/MusicalMilesPodcast
