Bio
Scott Richard Cooley (born
June 21, 1967 in Flint, Michigan) is an award-winning songwriter and independent solo recording artist based in Michigan, USA who few had ever heard of until the music industry gatekeepers relaxed their standards and allowed him to distribute albums to the streaming services starting in the early 2000s. As of 2023, his currently-available 11 full-length albums might fall under the Americana, lo-fi, slacker rock, acoustic, DIY, and singer-songwriter categories on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, Deezer and Pandora to name a few.
His most notable song is
probably "Mackinac Island," which features a Caribbean feel,
lighthearted humor, and a single swear word repeated many times. It's
about a real tourist destination in Lake Huron that will not make sense
to those who have not been there, and thus would be considered a
"regional" favorite. Cooley is also known
for writing "Smitten with the Mitten," a folk song about his home state
of Michigan; and for writing "Coney," a song about a unique and popular
eating experience there.
