Live Tonight on Millennium Stage: Stella Katherine Cole is a multifaceted performer based in New York City. You might know her from social media, where she has amassed well over half a million followers and nearly 6 million likes from posting singing videos that are beloved by a worldwide audience of all ages. Her videos have been reposted and praised by musicians like Michael Bublé, James Taylor, and Meghan Trainor and Broadway legends like Betty Buckley, Stephanie J. Block, and Donna Murphy. In New York, Stella has performed at iconic venues such as Dizzy’s Jazz at Lincoln Center, Birdland, 54 Below, Town Hall, Mezzrow, and the Cafe Carlyle as a guest soloist with Darren Criss. She has toured the country with Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox (PMJ). She recently collaborated with PMJ on a jazzy cover of “Flowers” by Miley Cyrus. The music video has already racked up a combined total of 5 million views between PMJ’s CZcams and Stella’s social media. Stella is recording her highly anticipated debut studio album this summer with producer Matt Pierson.
Stella first fell in love with the Great American Songbook as a toddler, transfixed by movies like The Wizard of Oz, Meet Me in St. Louis, and Singin’ in the Rain. These old movie musicals and their stars continue to impact her work today. Her biggest inspirations are Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand, two powerhouse performers who straddled the world of jazz, musical theatre, and popular music.
Stella graduated from Northwestern University in 2021 with a degree in theatre and international relations. She is currently a student of Tony Award®-winning vocal coach Joan Lader (Cynthia Erivo, Madonna, Patti LuPone, Sutton Foster) and La Tanya Hall (collaborator of Quincy Jones, Aretha Franklin, and Diana Ross). - Zábava
I imagine myself sitting in a jazz bar in the 50s, and 40s like an old-school noir detective after a long day and having a glass of gin to myself in my detective attire, and then this woman named Stella Cole appeared and started singing and everyone who was in the room amazed by her voice and beauty oh how times have changed.
Her "Flowers" is one of the best renditions. Love it.
Stella is such a joy, and her singing so pure and beautiful. It transports me to a time when we were better as a people. Thank you, Stella. ❤
You give all of us hope for the future.
Very generous of you to release this entire concert!

I always love hearing Stella's renditions of standards. I just wish I could sit in a jazz club, eating dinner as I hear the soft chatter of the audience and the beauty of her voice.
Super concert !! Great job also to Michael and the band !! 🎶🎵😊

I got to see her perform live on tour in Portland! It was magic!😭 Been following her for only a little while now but instantly just fell in love with her voice and stage presence. What a star!
Amazing voice and concert! Viva Stella!
you are raising an entire generation to standards that well were even before my time!!! I so appreciate your gifts and your arrangements of each piece! Sensual! Joyful! Angry! LOVELY!!!! You go Stella Cole!
Thank you for sharing your voice, Stella! ❤️ Wishing you nothing but the best.
Thank You. Beautiful.
Beautiful. One word sums up everything I am witnessing with my eyes and ears.
Thank god for that teacher
Really enjoyable.
I love listening to everything from Chopin to Dua Lipa - but these standards are just the greatest. Stella, I love the story you shared before singing Happy Days Are Here Again. If you see this, don’t stop doing your thing. You’ve got a rare gift!
With eyes shut.... got transported into an old-fashioned bar, old-fashioned singing, and the smooth swing of a sultry voice to create that perfect jazz.
Hey there Ms B-e-a-utiful Stella. A thousand and one thanks.
Been a fan of Stella Cole for quite a while and she never disappoints❤
Such a lovely night. Thank you! You are wonderful!
She is fabulous!
Beautiful music and an absolutely incredible voice! Thank you so much for uploading this concert to be enjoyed by a worldwide audience! 👏
What an AMAZING VOICE! Really enjoyed that set.
From Russia with Love! Amazing voice and music present!
I hope there’ll be more videos of her. I’m to impatient to wait til August for her first album.
Thank you! A true shower of music!
I love your sound, it feels so good.
She is great! Been watching her on CZcams for about a year maybe 1.5 years now! Love her music.
She is quite amazing! An old soul!
Delightful, magical and lovely! Stella transports us back in time.
😲 Piano solo is fantastic. Your vibrato and vocal tone are... strong, but still so tender.
LIKE A TENDER TRAP...PERFECT CONCERT.
So glad you have so effectively brought this back so exqusitely-you really have outdone the advice of your first college professor who was trying to mold you into a more modern sound. There’s certainly a place for that, but you preserve music from the Great American Songbook like no other. Love the impromptu videos from TikTok too as your expressions are soo fine!
Just love Stella's voice
Beautiful voice and presence. ❤Stella❤Love from Morocco ❤️
