Album Notes

-COLE-
"Dream it. Live it."

I live by this motto... always have... and thankfully, my dream is often featured in Technicolor with a Rock N Roll soundtrack.

As far back as I can recall, I dug music, Completely.
And "music ", no matter what the flavor...
I sponged up influences from everywhere and everyone.

From Downtown Detroit to the Hills of Tennessee...
From Elvis to Jeff Buckley.

No matter how diverse, I found an inspired piece of heaven in all of this music. It not only intoxicated me... it flat out changed my life.

"If You got a dream, it's time to live it... walk it... talk it... be it...
can u dig it?" (Cole- from the tune, "rock my soul") (c)

I was born to Rock...
All I've ever known is that somehow, I stood out from the crowd.
That someday, I would stand out on center stage. I had no choice
but to live this dream... that is, if I wanted to be me.

So at an early age I picked up a guitar and taught myself enough chords to make some noise. In my mid-teens, I began to write...
a lot. Young emotions turned into poems. Poetry turned into songs. Song writing turned into opportunity. And at eighteen, I finally got the chance to show audiences what I hoped I had.
Potential success was knockin'... I answered.

Moved to Nashville. Indulged myself in Rockabilly and Country...
sang on the stage of The Grand Ole Opry, and, along with my legendary pal's, The Jordanaires, recorded my first album
"Lost in Blue Dreams." Made connections, got on radio and television, learned some lessons, grew as an artist.

Next step- Las Vegas. In the bright lights of this big city I indulge myself in every form of music... sing in Showrooms, and, get to record with some of the greatest musicians in the world.
Lights, Cameras, Action! Life is Good... Still growing.

"If you're not doing something different, you're not doing anything at all." (Sam Phillips- famed Sun Records founder/producer)

Bringing something new and cutting edge to the scene is my burning desire, so over the years I have fused all my influences into who I am today... Something definitely different, yet, familiar
at the same time.

As a performer, I strive to connect.
As a songwriter, I strive to inspire.
As a man, I strive to lead.

"Merrily, Merrily, Merrily, Merrily.... Life is, but a dream."

The Dream has introduced me to people in the business that I idolized as a child. The Journey has taken me all through this great Country, and across Oceans, to far distant lands. The Gift has enabled me to make some amazing friends along the way. And best of all... This Life has given me the opportunity to brighten a soul or two with my songs.

All I've ever wanted to be, is who I am today.

I'm very grateful.
Don't wake me-
COLE
