Cole Greenwalt
Cole Greenwalt is a Nashville-based singer-songwriter with roots as deep and gritty as his music. Born and raised in Muhlenberg County, KY — the same soil that produced John Prine and the Everly Brothers — he writes songs that celebrate resilience, heartbreak, and the fight to stay afloat.
His sound blends Americana, outlaw country, and folk-rock in the vein of Tyler Childers, Zach Bryan, and Koe Wetzel. Music Marble called it perfectly: "Greenwalt's country drawl and raspiness fit perfectly into this sound."
After "More Like 32" connected with working-class fans across Kentucky and beyond, "Alcoholic" crossed 220,000 streams and turned heads — Uphere Magazine calling it "so raw, so loud, and achingly honest — maybe his best yet."
His latest, "Light It Up," is the other side of that coin. A high-energy country rock anthem recorded live as a full band at Treasure Isle, it's built for loud rooms and late nights — the kind of song that sounds even better when you're living it.
Cole has shared stages with Kelsey Hart, Jon Wayne Hatfield, and Chase McDaniel, co-founded the Nashville songwriter series Neon Outpost, and hosts his own music festival back home in Kentucky. He's just getting started.
