Lola Colette

Lola Bates is not your traditional singer songwriter. Raised in the hills of Laurel Canyon, her musical roots connect deeply to nature, vinyl, and the historic — lady of the canyon — Joni Mitchell, as well as other female rock and pop icons Kate Bush, Tori Amos and PJ Harvey to name a few. Bates is a classically trained pianist, multi-instrumentalist, composer, producer, who weaves lush vocal harmonies throughout pop, rock, and folk arrangements in her original songs — all showcased on her upcoming debut LP, 'Love and Power.' Along with writing, producing and arranging her own records and performing the majority of the instruments on her songs, Lola works as an art and video director, and producer, on her music videos and album visuals. At the age of 24, she has already had a prolific career. In 2022, Bates and her band toured in support of Jerry Cantrell (Alice in Chains) Brighten Tour, and then joined Cantrell’s band as keyboardist, backup vocalist and acoustic guitarist, for Cantrell’s world tour in support of his albums ‘Brighten’ and ‘I Want Blood.’ Furthering her career as an international touring musician, Bates then joined emerging pop band, Sunday(1994) on bass, for their supporting and headlining tours in 2024/2025.
