Quartz Hill Music Group recording artist Matt Cooper stopped by the MusicRow office last week to share his debut single and a few stories.
Cooper performed his track “Highs & Lows,” No. 1 Most Added Song at U.S Country Radio (Mediabase) the week the song went to radio. Inspired by a conversation with a man at a support group Cooper attended following the death of his mother, the song explores grief, healing and the ways faith can bring peace after loss. Written solely by Cooper and co-produced alongside Brooks Huntley, the track has surpassed 8 million streams.
After a meeting with Ash Bowers, Executive Vice President for Quartz Hill Music Group, Cooper signed with the label earlier this year. Inspired by the sounds of Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran and Thomas Rhett, Cooper has surpassed 118 million total streams and amassed more than 1.5 million social media followers with 25.8 million likes on TikTok. His breakout track, “Ain’t Met Us Yet,” has earned more than 25 million streams on Spotify and debuted at No. 1 on the iTunes All Genre Singles Chart.
