ABOUT
Cole Decker is a Mississippi-born, Montana-based singer-songwriter whose music blends the grit of Southern rock with the storytelling soul of Americana country. Drawing comparisons to Chris Stapleton, Whiskey Myers, and 49 Winchester, he’s built a reputation for writing songs that are as honest as they are unforgettable.
Raised on piano before picking up guitar in college, Cole has spent the last six years carving out his place on stage, opening for acts like Frank Foster, Parker McCollum, and Red Shahan. Now performing across Montana and beyond, he captivates audiences both as a solo artist and with his full band.
His latest album, Starting Fires On A Dare, is a raw collection of original songs that tackle love, loss, addiction, and memory with grit and vulnerability. From the unflinching Fifty-Fifty to the hard-edged Nothing But A Plan, the record shows a songwriter unafraid to put his scars into song. It’s a testament to the stories that shape us, delivered with the fire and conviction of an artist finding his stride.
Cole Decker’s Starting Fires On A Dare brings together seven songs released in 2024 and 2025, blending Americana storytelling with Southern rock grit. From the reckless energy of the title track to the quieter moments of reflection, the album captures youth, resilience, and the scars that shape us. It’s a raw, unfiltered record that proves Decker’s voice is as fearless as it is unforgettable.
