The most obvious appeal of Sally Cooper is her Incredible, heart-melting voice, and Masterful vocal execution. She has a vocal range of over 5 octaves, which she uses to alternate delicately and Skillfully in her songs between soaring vocal phrases and the warmest dulcet tones you are ever likely to hear!
Sally offers unique interpretations of a wide variety of popular songs, and also writes her own material. The subject matter of Sallys original music ranges from relationships, to soul searching, to cutting edge insight into life experiences.
Sallys unfaltering work ethic as a live performer has been the driving force behind her international success. She approaches each performance with the intent of having a great time onstage with her band or duo and she invites the audience to come along with them. She has received numerous live International reviews praising the sublime mood and ambiance at her live performances, and about her ability to light up the room where she is singing.
When Sally Cooper sings, she treats every note as though it were her own, and each note she sings IS! The most velvety of jazz vocals ranging to spine tingling Bluesy belting. As a jazz singer Sallys' abundant amount of live performance experience has allowed her to offer a street credibility to the genre.
Sally has always been surrounded, even right from the start of her career with collaborating musicians of the highest level.
