KOLBY CORDELL

Bio

Born into a musical family with a singing father and R&B-loving mother, Kolby found his true calling in music at age 17, using it to transform the challenges of his childhood into artistic expression. For six years, he dedicated his weekends to a three-hour commute for studio time, collaborating with other artists and crafting albums, even distributing CDs outside local grocery stores. Now, while working as a materials handler for the U.S. Forest Service, Kolby balances his musical aspirations with being a devoted father to his 6-year-old son Karter, who shares his musical genes. His job supports both his family and his dream of becoming an entertainer, allowing him time for gigs and studio sessions as he continues to write and perform, driven by the desire to show his son the rewards of pursuing one's passion.
