Cole Swindell biography

Colden “Cole” Rainey Swindell is an American Country artist originally from Bronwood, Georgia. He has established himself both as a songwriter as well as performer.

Born on 30 June 1983 in Glenville, Georgia and grew up in Bronwood, Georgia and graduted from Georgia Southern University in 2007. After graduating he worked selling merchandise for fellow fraternity brother Luke Bryan and in 2010 he signed a publishing deal with Sony/ATV Music Publishing. He helped write some of Bryan’s album, “Spring Break…Here To Party” and also helped contribute to Scott McCreery, Chris Young, and Florida Georgia Line.

The success of his publishing deal and consequently his song writing, led to his chance to establish himself as a performer. In 2013 he self-released his first single “Chillin’ It” which began to climb the country charts. The success of “Chillin’ It” garnered the attention of Warner Nashville who signed a contract with him that same year. The label re-released his single, followed by his first self-titled debut album on 18 February 2014. The album became a Top 5 hit on the country music airways, and sold over 250,000 copies. The “Chillin It” single peaked at number one on the Hot Country Songs, followed by “Hope You Get Lonely Tonight” which peaked at number seven; both of which reached gold status. Swindell set out on tour as the opening act for Luke Bryan’s That’s My Kind of Night Tour in 2014.

Live reviews

Hailing from Glenville, Georgia, Cole Swindell is just now beginning to follow a path that seems to have been tread increasingly often these past few years; after spending almost a decade as a songwriter for hire, penning songs for others, he’s now stepping out as a recording artist in his own right, with his self-titled debut dropping earlier this year. It’s one thing for him to make a country record, though - after all, he’ll have seen the inside of a fair few recording studios down the years - and another entirely to be thrown into the deep end of live performance; that’s precisely why it was so undeniably impressive to see how he handled that particular transition when he played his debut U.S. dates last year. Backed by an impressively tight band, Swindell proved that, with just the mic in hand, he could command an audience’s attention with his laid-back vocal style - check out his performance of ‘Chillin’ It’ on the David Letterman show for proof - Swindell genuinely exudes confidence, and the only real question is why he left it so long to get started on his own career.
