Musicians all have resumes that tout their experience with statements like “…. has shared the stage with The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan…” etc. etc.  OK, maybe not a whole lot of musicians can cite precisely those experiences.  But now Dana Cooper can say that he has “shared a screen” with no less a box-office star than Russell Crowe.  Both are featured this week at a new pop-culture site, ScreenRave.com.  Check it out:

The “In the Spotlight” article is a great feature about Dana, and if you click the “Music” link in the top-level menu and follow the link to “Browse Music,” you’ll the video of “Enough” featured there as well.

Who is this Dana Cooper you might ask?

Dana Cooper

Dana Performing in Pensacola, FL in 2009

Here’s a great write-up from a site called “ScreenRave.com:”

First let me say “I watched him in a live one-man show with a harmonica around his neck and a guitar hanging at his side”. Cooper was performing in Pensacola, Florida at “The Greater Gulf Coast Arts Festival” in 2009. He stood alone on stage with only the two instruments to keep him company. And I thought “This could be interesting”. Then he began to play, one track gave way to another and soon the crowd was as happy to see this as I was. “Phenomenal” is the only word that came to mind. I honestly felt that other people on stage (such as a drummer, backup guitars, or any other instrument) could have done nothing to improve his performance, which is to say “Wow, the dude can kick it”!
