Jim Cooper, the award winning vibraphonist, composer and educator, has been playing the vibes for over 50 years, leading numerous groups and appearing both as soloist and sideman.  Though, not exactly a household name among jazz vibraphonists, The Chicago Tribune wrote, “Cooper is not just a strong soloist but an accomplished bandleader as well…he played with a degree of subtlety and craft one does not often encounter in the work of performers far better known than he.”  Over the years, Jim has performed with some amazing jazz artists like Frank Wess, Milt Hinton, Mark Levine, Marcus Belgrave, Ira Sullivan, Buddy de Franco, Jon Faddis and the Chicago Jazz Ensemble and Michigan musicians Dave Bennett, Jeff Haas, Jerry McKenzie and Tad Weed among many others.
