Liz Cooper & The Stampede are a three-piece American rock band from Nashville, Tennessee.[1] NPR describes their music as "a seamless balance of muted rhythmic sounds and propulsive drive that feels so good".[2]
Overview
Liz Cooper spent the majority of her life developing her golf skills, only to drop her college scholarship to move to Nashville and pursue music.[3] Soon after she moved to Nashville in 2012 she recruited Ky Baker and Grant Prettyman to join The Stampede.[4] Liz Cooper & The Stampede have played at Austin City Limits Festival, and have opened for Bermuda Triangle and Desert Noises.[5][6] When asked what types of music influences her she says "The '60s, '70s. Meeting people. My surroundings. Traveling. Jazz. Bossa nova. Random music that I'll hear when I'm driving through random places in Colorado where there's only one station, and it's really strange and I'm stuck with it. Everything influences me."[7]
Reviews
- Jimmy Drenovsky from Mmarquettewire.org said, "Liz Cooper & the Stampede are a three-piece unit that make breathtaking ambient-rock tunes."[8]
- NO COUNTRY-staff with NoCountryforNewNashville.com wrote, "We've had our eye on local psychedelic rockers Liz Cooper & The Stampede since they blew the roof off our Acme Feed & Seed showcase a while back."[9]
- BNH at NPR.org related that, ""Mountain Man" is a catchy, simple love song written with the clarity of a good cut of Nashville country. Liz Cooper guides the song with her percussive, fingerpicked guitar and her crackling voice."[2]
