Jude Cole

Jude Cole is perhaps best known for his single, "Baby It's Tonite", which performed modestly well on the Billboard Top 20. He is currently the manager, producer, and sometimes co-writer for the popular American band Lifehouse whose hits include "You and Me", "Hanging By A Moment", and "The First Time". A singer/songwriter, producer, and occasional actor, Cole's music is generally laden with warm pop hooks, acoustic guitar, and smart, insightful lyrics. From his earlier pop outings, Cole's work matured into what could best be termed "heartland pop" -- aimed squarely at observations on love, loss, success, failure, pain, and joy, all from a decidedly blue-collar, middle-American perspective.
