With the heart of a showman and the hustle of a modern independent artist, Cooper Alan is bringing fearless creativity and unfiltered authenticity to country music. A native of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Alan has built a massive, self-made fanbase online with over 18 million followers and 750 million+ streams through heartfelt storytelling, clever humor, or outside-the-box genre mashups.

With the release of his debut full-length album Winston-Salem, out now, Alan introduces the world to every side of himself: the reflective songwriter, the good-time party starter, the husband, father, and the Southern kid proud of where he comes from. Split into two halves, Winston for the introspective tracks and Salem for the rowdy, genre-bending anthems, the album follows his 2023 concept EP Take Forever, which chronicled his real-life love story and marriage. Alan’s journey began in cover bands and Nashville honky-tonks, but his career took off through viral videos and a direct, genuine connection with fans.

From mental health meditations to unapologetic drinking songs, he’s proven himself as one of country’s most fearless new voices, blending country, rock, pop, and hip-hop influences with sharp writing, big hooks, and a live show that’s sold over 150,000 tickets globally, including a sold-out 2024 headline tour in Australia. Named a Pandora Ten Artist To Watch and part of the SiriusXM + Pandora 2024 Future Five, Alan hit #1 on SiriusXM The Highway’s Hot 30 Countdown with his breakout single “Take Forever.” His latest tracks, including “Plead The Fifth”, “Holy Ghost”, “Dale Dickens (RIP)”, and “Hard Acre” signal what is to come for this next chapter of music.
