Patrick Cooper has toured the world, performing at various festivals and concerts. At the Bermuda Jazz Festival, this awesome keyboardist was the musical director for the Smooth Jazz All-Stars including stars such as Nick Colionne and Regina Belle. Patrick has also performed at the Bahamas Jazz Festival. He has become the most sought after keyboardist, producer and songwriter by fellow jazz artists and now the world will know what they know: This is a true giant. He wrote the title song on Marcus Johnson's “Just Doing What I Do” & also wrote the track "Make it Happen" on Marus Johnson's latest CD titled "The Phoenix".
Like so many artists destined for greatness, Patrick's taste for jazz started early. While growing up in Portland, Oregon he was exposed to the sounds of George Duke, The Crusaders and a myriad of other great jazz artists. He grew up in the church and was fascinated by the harmonies, voicing and colors created by the organist and the pianist.
“It was amazing to me how they were able to blend sounds and to work magic with the keys, “Cooper said. “I knew then that music would be a big part of my life.” He purchased books to teach himself to read music and jazz theory. By age 18, this jazz aficionado was the church's main organist and keyboardist.
By age 21, Patrick co-founded a contemporary jazz band called N-Touch. The band afforded Patrick the opportunity to hone and showcase his songwriting skills. The band performed at various jazz clubs and festivals. The band quickly achieved tremendous notoriety and fame in the Portland area. In 2000, Cooper relocated to Washington, DC where he has truly continued to flourish on the world jazz scene.

This video is the first in a series addressing the lack of integrity inherent within modern day Christianity. A more liberal and morally loose conceptual way of thinking is being widely embraced by today's Christian culture. Instead of rousing this sleeping giant in order to slay it, we've been sleeping with the giant, compromising and coming into agreement with it. Now, as kingdom leaders, we need to re-establish the standard and make our position clear. The remnant is finally making itself known, and it is time to take up our cross and be followers of Christ. All of creation awaits the manifestation of the true children of God.
