About

COOLER BY THE CREEK is well known for its mainstream and legendary country covers. The band's legacy started performing songs popular on Sirius radio's Y2K and then added some classic country with emphasis on female vocals. The current trio does most of the covers, but has added some classic rock songs to the mix! A big part of the band's legacy was opening for Scotty McCreery, Cole Swindell, and Cort Carpenter, but no job was too big or too small. We performed at festivals, church picnics, clubs, bars, bowling alleys, restaurants and private parties. Liz, Bob and Chuck will continue these traditions. The trio is self-contained with sound and lighting equipment so give us a chance to entertain you!
