The LITTLE COUNTRY GIANTS formed in 2004 and are the product of years of writing songs together and apart, and the music is as pure and simple as it is true and timeless. Unlike most music today that folks might quickly outgrow, this is music one can grow old with. The southern flavor in the songs are rich with the sounds of Georgia’s roots and America’s musical seeds.

| About Little Country Giants |
|
Hellooooo, and welcome to our myspace page! We are Russell and Cameron Cook... a songwriting duo, and have been writing songs and playing music together since we met in 1998. We began to play under the name Little Country Giants in 2004 after moving from Athens, to Atlanta, to California, and finally settling in Rome, GA. Russell plays guitar and mandolin, and Cameron plays upright bass. Our latest line up consists of an assortment of the following: Owen Talley on piano, Leah Calvert on fiddle, Andy (Kay) Kilinski on pedal steel, and David Long on mandolin.
