They rock, they swing, and they jump. Coop DeVine are a group of four seasoned professional artists who still think they’re 17. They play a blend of Bluesy Rock’n’Roll with a rockabilly edge. A lot of their material has a swing feel that entices dancers onto the floor from the word go! A team of doctors at the Royal College Of Medical Science, in Melbourne Australia have been working for some time now, to discover what makes Coop Devine so infectious.
One thing is for certain, if you don’t wear out your shoes dancing, you will certainly be tapping your toes all night.
