Everything seems to influence & inspire my music now... Conversations, traffic, construction sounds, nature, the shower etc.
Some of my more "traditional" influences are...
Steve Vai, Led Zeppelin, Wagner, Weezer, Tommy Emmanuel, Segovia, Wes Montgomery, AC/DC, S.R.V., Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Yes, Coltrane, Randy Rhoads, C.o.B., and many more =)
Sounds Like
My Songs & Compositions usually include a broad range of stylistic influences. So, instead of "defining" my sound by a specific style, I just like to think that I try to accurately express that which I want in any way I feel necessary.
Sometimes that means something as complex as polymetric orchestral music infused with overdriven Harmonica, but other times it means something as simple as a Guitar/Voice arrangement.
I don't consider myself a master in any one style or at any one technique on the guitar, but instead as a master of observation and expression.
At age 12, Kole received a beat-up, dull red, 1970’s generic electric guitar from his father and randomly one day decided he wanted to learn how to play it. Originally inspired by bands like Metallica and Led Zeppelin, Kole started to form a foundation of rock and blues based music that eventually would dominate his playing and composition style. For the next 6 years he had no specific direction with music and only thought of the guitar as a hobby. However, 4 years ago his life changed when he met solo musician and virtuoso guitarist, Tom Hess. Since studying with him, Kole has taken very large strides in improving himself musically and forwarding his career in the music industry.
Now at age 22, he has taught Guitar workshops in both the Mid-west & California, has internationally released his debut album "Exile", has Co-Authored numerous instructional products, has finished two full years of classical composition and guitar at the revered Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University, and is currently attending Musicians Institute.
**Kole is also Featured as the Lead Guitarist in the 2009 Feature Film "Fame", directed by Kevin Tancharoen!**
