Cole Stacey Biography
Cole Stacey is a visceral and lyrical songwriter, singer and musician who has roamed the highest diverse echelons of British folk, 80s pop, spoken word and ambient electronics. From The Royal Albert Hall to The Westfalenhalle Arena, from 700-year-old castles in Gdansk to Glastonbury Festival.
"A magnificent sound" - Patrick Kielty, BBC Radio 5 Live
“Soft, pop-aware voice describing a life alive with motion” – The Independent
As one half of alt-folk duo India Electric Company alongside Joseph O’Keefe, Cole has recently been found on prime-time live sessions for BBC Radio 2 and BBC 6 Music with KLOF declaring them “one of the truly pioneering acts in folk music” and BBC Radio 1 describing them as “A full musical odyssey”.
Since 2015 Cole has been accompanying legendary pop icon Midge Ure on everything from mandolin to bass Guitar, analogue synthesizers to vocals, across sold-out tours of Australia, New Zealand, UK, Scandinavia and Germany. Shows with the Human League at Hammersmith Apollo and headline concerts at the likes of The Royal Albert Hall have been plentiful in recent years.
“Cole’s soaring vocals were a highlight of an electrifying performance, nothing short of mesmerizing” – Scottish Music Network
With explorations into traditional songwriting and verse in his blood, Cole will be sharing his extraordinarily honest debut album in early 2025 to audiences far beyond his Dartmoorian horizons. At its heart is a symbiosis of ‘lost’ places and forgotten words, stretching as far back as the 13th century, paired with Cole’s distinctive lyrical songwriting and remarkable field recordings. For someone so well traveled of late, this album finally brings Cole Stacey home.
