REVIEWS & MENTIONS...
"Chris has that special touch you need from a keyboardist. His piano playing is so beautiful and he can fill out a song with strings and pads that glue a song together with taste. I've hired Chris on multiple sessions and I can say he's a total pro and easy to work with . Look at his credits then hire him for your songs too!" — Peter Young (Producer/Session drummer - ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ SoundBetter review)
"As a singer-songwriter who's not exactly known for his "chops", I am often at the mercy of those who have them. This mercy includes not only the emotional interpretation of my music/notes and melody, but just as importantly, the emotional interpretation of the lyric, whether it be a specific word or an entire phrase. No one does this better than Chris Nole and I am fortunate to have had him play on all of my "keyboards required" recordings for the past 10 years or so. Chris has exceeded my expectations every single time." — Agabus (Recording Artist - ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ SoundBetter review)

"I've just released my latest cd project, Mosaic, a wonderful collaboration with Chris Nole. The project consists of four of my better known tunes, presented as solo piano tracks, all arranged and performed by Chris. They are stunning tracks indeed, which showcase not only my songwriting, but Chris's extraordinary musical capabilities. He is an absolute professional and a pleasure to work with, and insanely gifted in every phase of the creative process. I can't recommend him enough for your own project. Thanks Chris! I am looking forward to doing more recording projects with you in the future." — Jeffrey Pine (Recording Artist - Facebook mention)
"I've worked with and heard the best piano players Nashville has to offer. Chris is by far my favorite. His talent as a producer never ceases to impress me. He has produced my, "Like a Butterfly" CD and is currently producing my forthcoming Christmas CD. He has an innate ability to sense what the track or song needs, what to play, when to play, and sometimes more importantly, when not to play. Over the years I've watched him embrace the latest in technology so his tracks are creatively and sonicly sound. He is very efficient, organized and if he says he'll do it, he does -and better than you could have ever imagined!" — Brittany Allyn (Recording Artist - Facebook mention)

Wolk (Producer/Session Musician - Facebook mention)
