6 Nominations, Houston Press Music Awards, 2007-09 including “Best Songwriter”, “Best Roots-Rock”, and “Best New Act”.
“Reminiscent of The Bottle Rockets, Uncle Tupelo/Son Volt, and Alejandro Escovedo, Cooper’s not kidding around on lyrics like ‘When the bottle’s your only friend, you’re coughing up the blood, and your lungs will start to flood’” - Chris Gray, Houston Press
“LL Cooper’s Old Hardin Store Road plays like a sparkling amalgamation or world-weary, road tested genres…Cooper’s balance of humor and heartache make it an engaging expression of lyrical emotion.” - Joey Guerra, Houston Chronicle
“…the kind of voice that sticks with you; it’s deep, dark, with a sly touch of sarcasm.” - Sara Cress, 29-95.com
