If you ask Chris Nole what the best seat in the house is, whether at Carnegie Hall, the Grand Ole Opry, or in any of Nashville's many recording studios, he’ll tell you it’s the piano bench. And he should know. He’s occupied one since the age of nine and subsequently performed worldwide with some of the biggest names in music.

 Nole moved to Nashville in 1987.  He quickly became a sought after talent who toured and recorded alongside numerous top acts, including superstar Faith Hill, pop folk icon John Denver, country-rocker Travis Tritt, Gospel-Pop-Country Music legends the Oak Ridge Boys, Don Williams, acclaimed vocalist Shelby Lynne, Emmylou Harris and many more.

 In addition to being a well-established keyboardist, Chris is a composer whose songs have been recorded by various artists ranging from Faith Hill to The Swamp Honkys and have been used in several television productions, such as Men of a Certain Age, Heroes, and E! True Hollywood Story.

Chris’ many performance credits include the Oak Ridge Boys 2009, 2010, and 2011 Christmas Tours, Carnegie Hall with Mollie Weaver and Pete Huttlinger, Travis Tritt’s “Burning Thunder” tour and CMT All Access television special, Let This Be a Voice, the PBS television documentary special, The CBS television movie special The John Denver Story (recorded with famed composer Lee Holdridge) and The Wildlife Concert: John Denver’s A&E television special and platinum-selling live record. Chris was fortunate enough to play on John Denver’s last record, the Grammy-winning All Aboard(1997). He has also appeared several times with Faith Hill, including three of her debut performances; The Late Show with David Letterman, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and the Grand Ole Opry.
