Stella Cole - imagination

Stella Cole’s Imagination is a new collection of Great American Songbook classics, delivered with warmth, elegance, and effortless charm in an intimate voice-and-trio setting. Centered on themes of romance, memory, and dreams, the album brings fresh life to beloved standards while honoring the emotional richness that has made these songs endure for generations.

From the wistful “As Time Goes By” to the dreamlike tenderness of “Imagination,” Cole captures the magic of songs that feel both nostalgic and immediate. “It Had to Be You,” “Polka Dots and Moonbeams,” and “I’m Old Fashioned” showcase her natural affinity for classic melody and lyrical storytelling, while “Singin’ in the Rain” and “Soon It’s Gonna Rain” reveal playful and intimate sides of her artistry.

Featuring sensitive accompaniment from her trio Michael Kanan (piano), Michael Migliore (bass) and Hank Allen-Barfield (drums), Imagination is an inviting, heartfelt album for anyone who enjoys timeless vocals and romantic American standards.
