STELLA COLE
Beginning with an impromptu a cappella clip of “Over the Rainbow,” Stella Cole has become a global viral sensation for simply doing what she has been passionate about her whole life - singing songs from the Great American Songbook. With a combined social media following of over two million, Stella has caught the attention of superstars David Foster, James Taylor, Michael Buble, John Mayer and Meghan Trainor.
True to her eclectic tastes, Stella Cole features both very familiar and delightfully obscure Songbook tunes including “Over the Rainbow,” “(Love Is) The Tender Trap,” the Judy Garland classic “The Boy Next Door,” the Streisand-inspired “When the Sun Comes Out,” “Detour Ahead” and “Moon River,” the iconic Henry Mancini/Johnny Mercer tune she has chosen as the album’s lead single.
“We picked ‘Moon River’ because it’s a very important song for me,” Stella says. “When I started posting on social media, the first well-known musician to notice me was James Taylor, reposting a video of me singing ‘Moon River’. That was a big moment!” Stella also cites the song as symbolic of her goal for the entire album. “What I’ve been trying to do with this music is comfort people. To me, ‘Moon River’ always feels like a deep breath; hopeful, calming and nostalgic. There’s so much negativity and chaos in the world and I want people to stop, listen and feel they can breathe again.”
