Colen began playing guitar when he was in his early teens. He couldn’t fit his hand around the neck of the guitar so he would lay the guitar across his lap and play with his fingers on top of the fret-board slide-guitar-style. He has self-produced 5 EP CD’s since he was 16 and is putting the finishing touches on his 6th full length now.

Colen began playing guitar when he was in his early teens. He couldn’t fit his hand around the neck of the guitar so he would lay the guitar across his lap and play with his fingers on top of the fret-board slide-guitar-style. He has self-produced 5 EP CD’s since he was 16 and is putting the finishing touches on his 6th full length now. Colen has shipped these all over the world – at his own expense - to a loyal following he has drawn to himself through websites including myspace.com.Influences as diverse as Nirvana, The Smashing Pumpkins, Pink Floyd and Dan Fogelberg can all be heard and felt in Colen’s music. Colen had written over 150 songs before he was 25 and his live performances always captivate the attention of the audience. His first post on ourstage.com has moved from 871-99 in a little less than a week and his music recently has received the attention of a few different labels.Some people learn to play music others are given the gift of music. The latter is the case with Colen. As his brother and friend I have no doubt that the spirit that has so conspicuously gifted Colen with this music intends for it to be shared with the world. I hope you enjoy his music as much as I do. - L.Loucks
