HEADLINER: Linda Cole Sings and Swings!

At age 3, Linda Cole, of the Cole Family Dynasty, began singing with her father and mother, James (relative of Nat King Cole) and Erma (sister to Globe Trotter Deacon Davis) Cole in Freeport, Illinois.  In the following years, as the family added six more singing Cole children, Linda became instrumental in the formation of the “Singing Cole Family” known throughout central United States.  The “Singing Cole Family” was honored by the Illinois History  magazine in 1963 and 1965.

After decades of performing music ranging from Motown to Jazz, Ms. Cole is a self-appointed ambassador of the preservation of the Great American Songbook and education in the world renowned art form – JAZZ.  She has been instrumental in raising the level of visibility for the appreciation of the arts in Central and Northeast Florida.  Ms. Cole also gives the gift of her time and talent to area victims of crime, domestic violence, rape crisis centers and child advocacy agencies.  She has been an active member of the Governing Board of the Fitzgerald Center for the Performing Arts in Palm Coast for over a decade and a half.

MS. COLE’S CONCERT IS ON FRIDAY, MAY 10, AT 7:30 PM IN FIRST UNITED METHODIST CHURCH.  DON’T MISS HEARING THIS MUSICAL ICON!
