Bio
Shannon Cole is a South Jersey native who has been rocking the Philadelphia area original music scene for the past two years with her infectious rock hooks and her raw, dynamic energy. Her "take-no-prisoners" style of writing, along with her power vocals and her "in-your-face" guitars have audiences rocking wherever she performs. Compared most frequently to chick-rockers Joan Jett and Pat Benatar, Cole has put a fresh, young, contemporary new face on the classic "guitar-rock" sound that has endured for so long.
In the Spring of 2004 at the age of 16, Cole met producer/songwriter Joe Caliva while he was filling in at her high school for a choral teacher who was out on Maternity Leave. Having dabbled a little in writing lyrics and music from what she taught herself, Cole shared some of her songs with Caliva. It was immediately evident to him that Cole had a gift – a voice that was filled with expressive emotion and an uncanny ability to write. A few months later, Caliva began co-writing with Cole and producing recordings of their work as well as performing with her at open mics, local bars, street corners and any other venue that would allow her to sing her music. The two spent much of the next year writing, recording and honing Cole’s skills. In May of 2005, a band was formed and Cole burst onto the Philly Original Music Scene and has been rocking audiences there ever since.
Anyone seeing Cole's live performance for the first time can immediately tell that the stage is where she is most comfortable and where she is most in "her element." Unlike the glossy, sugar-coated female pop that saturates the radio waves today, Cole's straightforward, "no-holds-barred" rock-and-roll jumps off the stage like a juggernaut of raw emotion and energy. Shannon Cole is the “full package” - a sexy, talented, driven young woman who has come a long way in the short time she has been pursuing her career as a rock artist, and her determination doesn't show any signs of diminishing.
