Cole Adams is a seasoned singer-songwriter, rhythm guitarist, and entertainer from Saint Louis, Missouri, with musical chapters also rooted in California and Reno, Nevada. Over the years, Cole has performed as a solo artist and in a variety of collaborative lineups, known for their heartfelt songwriting, rich vocal tone, and warm onstage presence.

Blending folk-rock, blues, and soul, Cole’s music is anchored in storytelling, emotional honesty, and musical connection. They began playing guitar at 13, inspired by The Beatles (their lifelong favorite band), and discovered songwriting in 2000 after receiving an acoustic Epiphone Gibson for their 16th birthday. By 21, they were performing throughout the St. Louis music scene, honing both craft and confidence through hundreds of live shows.

In 2012, Cole traveled to Los Angeles for their first songwriter’s convention, where they connected with a group of talented Southern California musicians and producers who helped assemble the perfect studio band, including Greg Douglass (former lead guitarist and songwriter for the Steve Miller Band). Together, they recorded the full-length album Stories From An Old House in Escondido, California, under the band name Generations, released in 2015 and featuring several of Cole’s original songs.

During the years of recording, Cole frequently performed in San Diego, Laguna Beach, Long Beach, and Los Angeles. In 2017, they moved to Reno, Nevada, where they played regularly in the city’s vibrant downtown scene, a chapter they remember with deep fondness.

More recently, Cole has stepped into a powerful new musical direction: Blues-Rock Affirmation Music. Their single “I Am Grateful” has been gaining momentum on TikTok, where listeners have been singing, dancing, and embodying the practice of singing gratitude directly into their lives, minds, and bodies. The song features a full official music video, filmed and directed by Jessica Rose (Jessica Weidhaas), now available on YouTube.
