Troy Kokol

About me:

Bio... Troy Kokol's first cut, "Pickup Truck", co-written with Joni Delaurier, was featured on country artist, Shane Yellowbird's freshman release, "Life Is Calling My Name". The song was in the Top 10 for 12 straight weeks, hit number 1 on CMT and on the CanCountry Charts. 100 weeks after it's release in March 2007, the song still held a spot in the top 100. At the 2007 CCMA's the song was nominated for Single of the Year, Video of the Year and both Kokol and Delaurier were nominated for SOCAN Songwriter of the Year. The song ended up one of the top 10 Canadian country singles of 2007 earning them a SOCAN award in 2008.

Troy has completed his first CD, "Lost In The Metaphor", hot on the heels of the lead single, "Honky Tonk In Heaven", enjoying radio play nationwide. Troy also continues to write and currently has cuts pending with several artists. Between writing trips to Nashville, touring and his current projects in Canada, he's keeping a busy schedule and proving to be someone to watch for in the Canadian country music scene.
