Biography

Cole Rolland is best known as a singer, guitarist, and producer, with 1.40 million subscribers and more than 275 million views on YouTube. After a guitar video went viral when he was just 15, Cole spent the next decade transforming that initial spark into a blazing inferno. Quickly selling out a limited run of his Midnight guitar led to a full-blown signature deal. His inventive song reinterpretations earned invitations to perform with EDM/dance-pop duo Krewella and Grammy-nominated artists ILLENIUM and Adventure Club. A guitar prodigy inspired by Eddie Van Halen, Randy Rhoads, and Zakk Wylde, Cole’s cover of “Through the Fire and Flames” by British power metal band DragonForce launched his career in 2009. Each successive cover resulted in steadily explosive growth on YouTube and coverage from Guitar World, Premier Guitar, Kerrang!, and CBC Radio. Original music was the next logical step. In 2020, the Passenger EP brought his compositional skills to the forefront. In late 2021, Cole released “Ignite,” the first wholly original composition of his career to put his lead vocal atop his guitars. With his combination of talent, hard work, passion, charisma, and positivity, he’s blazed a trail for others to follow. The continued evolution of his music demonstrates the unlimited potential of an authentic community built from scratch. Undoubtedly, his burgeoning rise, from obscurity to the stage, will continue to inspire.
