Meet the Musicians…
CHRIS COLE
Chris Cole has been one of the most sought after recording and live vocalists in the Bay Area for over 30 years. His versatile vocal style and an easy going stage presence has not only attracted audiences worldwide, but has enabled him to surround himself with some of the top musicians in the area. With a career spanning 3 decades, Chris has found the musicians…and songs he truly loves… and has put together a band worthy of these tunes.
