Wilkes and The Coles

Wilkes and The Coles is the product of two artists joining together to become one. Wilkes and EB Cole have had separate solo careers over the last 10-20 years. Throughout this time, Shane Cole, EB's husband and Wilkes's long-time friend, has operated as an un-named creative partner in both. After Wilkes appeared on Season 14 of The Voice, shows began to ramp up for him. It only took a handful of those shows with Shane on guitar and EB singing background vocals, for it to become apparent that the three have a special chemistry together. Wilkes and EB began writing more songs together, which has resulted in a song catalogue that has the same captivating chemistry. Combining their separate endeavors into one group became the obvious route. Wilkes & The Coles have a sound that you can really feel. Lead vocals are shared between Wilkes and EB while Wilkes and Shane share the role of instrumentation. The songwriting has depth, the music has artistic integrity and the vocals have a tight blend with a focus on harmonies. Wilkes & The Coles makes music that moves people, whether it be your heart or your feet.
