Deeply anchored under the umbrella of the blues, Cole is quite at home playing solo acoustic bottleneck slide with his trusty National reso-phonic guitar. In the footsteps of the prewar Delta blues masters, Cole has carefully chiseled and crafted his own unique style and songcraft from a template of the greats, Son House, Robert Johnson & Bukka White. Born and raised on the west coast, Cole’s contemporary blues stylings are an amalgamation of his eclectic musical influences from his early years. R&B, Motown, country, rock and swing have become important components in his songs and arrangement style. With four self produced CD’s to his credit, Cole continues to draw the listener into his world of thoughts, images and possibilities! Cole’s lyrical focus becomes the common denominator for all his audiences. There is a authentic connection Cole makes at each show about life experiences. Today’s listeners enjoy Cole’s show because of his ingenious down home approach of weaving provocative thoughts and possibilities into everyday life. Stripping his songs of shallow commercial tinsel, Cole delivers his music straight up with passion and intense emotion. Cole’s stories, anecdotes, songs and music remind us that we are all connected as one! Cole is playing tomorrow’s blues today!
