Cooper Naess: Performing Artist in New York

About Cooper Naess

Cooper Naess is a New York–based performer and musician who appears regularly on DIY bills, including at Alphaville. They have shared stages with Mope, Annie Collette, and Drawl, moving between projects where collaboration and scene context are part of the work. Naess’s sets tend to foreground texture and pacing rather than spectacle, aligning with the club’s mix of electronic and band-driven programming. Their practice reads as episodic and venue-shaped, built through recurring lineups more than fixed repertoire.
