Who is Cole Parker?

Cole Parker is a “Fourth Generation Musician” who loves to share his talent and passion for music with the world. He covered many songs including “ There Ain’t No Good Chain Gang “ by Johnny Cash, “ I like it I Love It “ by Tim McGraw, “I’d Love to Lay You Down” by Conway Twitty, Old Town Road, many songs of George Strait and many more. His posts on his Facebook account clearly show that he is not boasting his talent but is simply sharing his happiness with music to the world. Many people who noticed his talent are congratulating and praising him.

An Amazing Talent

Aside from his great voice and skill in playing the guitar, he also writes his own songs. He posted a video of himself singing his own composition entitled “Back to the ’90s” (Country was good) where he showcased his musicianship and confidence.  It talks about his yearning of the good country music of the ’90s. One of the comments on his Facebook account suggested he join a Songwriters Festival to which he politely accepted. He received a lot of support from his friends and family to which he is extremely grateful of.

The most important characteristic of a singer is being passionate. Passion is the driving factor that makes everything worthwhile. If there is no passion, there is no reason in pursuing that talent. When a singer is performing, the passion is visible. It is the silent charm that gets people’s attention.
