Carson Cole
Without missing a beat, Carson Cole will tell you straight up that his heart belongs to rock and roll. His life story and musical background, however, paint and entirely different picture filled with rich and funny stories of places he’s been and the people he’s met and their impact on his life and music.
The son of an Alberta farmer, Carson spent his early years tending to 5,000 or so laying hens and supporting the family farm’s milk and livestock production. At tender age of five, his musical career got started when he began pounding on family piano, which led to the trombone, and then to a secret drum kit he kept hidden in a basement closet.
