Sally Cooper Duo

Sally Cooper Duo    Showreel on YouTube

The Sally Cooper Duo has been one of Australasia's Premier professional entertainment acts in the 5 star hotel industry for the last 10 years.

Recently returned from 2 resident musician contracts at The Royal Orchid Sheraton in Bangkok and The Rasa Sayang Shangri-la 6 star resort in Malaysia, now based in Brisbane, Australia.

Vocalist Sally Cooper covers all the Divas, from Ella to Aretha, from Billie Holiday to Norah Jones, from Eva Cassidy to Janis Joplin, but when she 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.

Guitarist in the duo Phillip Stone has been the permanent member and musical director of Sally's Band since he joined in 1999. Phillip is often praised by qualified International musical contemporaries as really BEING a master of the guitar. Covering styles that range from George Benson to Jimi Hendrix, from Pat Metheny and Wes Montgomery to Larry Carlton. Sophisticated acoustic jazz guitar stylings to showstopping electric Blues Rock.

Sally Cooper and Phillip Stone are the core members of the group, they also work with floating members (always Australia's best, and occasionally from The U.S.A) to form a Trio and up to a 5 piece band.
