Formed as the creative endeavor of musical couple Ashleigh and Cody Cooper, Blockhouse Valley quickly gained a reputation for their unique takes on popular songs. Their original music draws deeply from the American Rust Belt, capturing the textures of Midwest living and Appalachian roots. Influenced by regional folk and bluegrass as much as by the alternative, rock, blues, pop, and country of the 90s and 00s, Blockhouse Valley creates music that blends grit and heart with modern relevance.
