GEORGE COLE: George Cole is a singer and breakneck acoustic guitarist George Cole lives in a musical world all his own.... a world in which Django Reinhardt, The Ramones, Nat King Cole and Doc Watson get equal billing with Irving Berlin, George Gershwin, Willie Nelson and the Great American Songbook. Born in San Francisco and raised in Richmond California George is a BAMMIE Award winner, his singing and guitar playing is filtered through Rock and Roll, Gypsy Jazz and All things American. He was guitar teacher and mentor to Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees Billie Joe Armstrong and Mike Dirnt of Green Day. Chris Isaak had Cole lay down guitar tracks on his platinum selling Forever Blue release and Jazz great Keely Smith handpicked George to play guitar and sing duets with her on her last tour (check out Keely’s and Sinatra singing “How Are Ya’ Fixed For Love” on “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”). George Cole is the guitarist the David Grisman Quintet and has two releases on Grisman’s highly regarded Acoustic Disc Label. In his 2019 Nat King Cole at 100, Centennial Celebration Concerts, George Cole honors a true American genius of Jazz music. From Carnegie Hall to The Paramount, George Cole has performed and toured internationally seizing every opportunity to pull out all the stops to bring audiences to their feet again and again.
