Cole Stacey is described by Steve Knightley (Show Of Hands) as "An Impassioned & Ambitious Young Songwriter" Cole Stacey is an acclaimed singer & songwriter hailing from Devon, England. His rapidly growing reputation has led him to have opened sell-out shows for award winning acts such as Midge Ure, Hayseed Dixie, Cara Dillon & Martin Simpson. Cole will once again be supporting Midge on some of his 2013 UK Tour Solo Dates.

He has had continued airplay on BBC Radio & stations across the world and performed headline UK Tours/shows/major Festivals .In September 2011 he was asked by Acoustic Magazine to perform at The London Acoustic Guitar Show & then followed that with a joint tour with critically acclaimed instrumentalist Chris Woods. In 2012 Cole completed a 5 week UK Tour performing alongside the extremely gifted multi-instrumentalist Joseph O'keefe, was asked to play major shows such as 'The Acoustic Festival Of Britain'.

Joseph's new album 'On Hire has been well received "On Hire" is fresh, original, inventive & one of the best albums I've heard from young songwriters this year" - Steve Knightley (Show Of Hands). This follows on from his acclaimed last CD 'A Long Road To Find' and first album 'Changing Faces'. "

Just Lovely.... so fresh sounding, a great rendition & a lovely big sound for a duo....one of the more interesting collaborations of the year..." -Tom Robinson (BBC6 Music)

"Quality musicianship & passion in equal measure.....heartfelt lyrics, distinctive & soaring vocals, high quality compositions, natural charm... Delightfully strong" - Acoustic Magazine

With Cole Stacey's crushed velvet voice and Joseph O'Keefe's astoundingly versatile multi-instrumental talents the possibilities for this album weren't limited. This collaboration brings out a distinct romanticism in both, creating a swooning tapestry of aching words and melodies, which ensnares and captivates - Spiral Earth
