Born and raised in Oklahoma, Colte found his love of music as a kid banging away on an old upright piano in the living room. His earliest musical influences came from his Mom's love of 70's Rock, his Dad's love of Country, and his Grandparents' love of Gospel and 50's Rock and Roll; while college inspired a love of all things Classical, Musical Theatre, and Jazz. These eclectic influences keep his career ever-evolving and his performances dynamic, unique, and engaging. 

You can find Colte as a headliner on the famous Las Vegas Strip, as an accompanist in the UNLV Theatre Department, as a pianist in a number of Jazz groups, as a solo performer for events large and small, and as a proud Husband and Father.
