COOKIN' STU - Episode 16
Firefly guitars, random whistling, and somehow Tom & Jack staging a corporate takeover of Cookin’ Stu (don’t ask). The genre blender went full speed today: country, R&B, and house all crashing into each other in the best way possible. It’s mayhem, sure, but the kind that makes you wonder how on earth we ended up here. The only way to know is to watch… or not, but then you’re missing out on peak creative chaos. Your call. Deuses.

Cohle
Writer
Cohle Smith is an indie-folk artist blending the timeless intimacy of folk with raw, unfiltered modern indie storytelling. Originally from Houston, TX, Cohle was more focused dancing and making up songs than Little League games. When his coach told him to "man up," he quit, instinctively knowing that his place and queer identity would be more appreciated in music, not baseball. Now based in Boston, MA, Cohle's music is a deeply personal reflection of love, loss, and self-discovery. Influenced by artists like Julia Jacklin and Wilco, Cohle utilizes acoustic elements and vulnerable reflections to share his distinct queer perspective growing up in the south. With every lyric, Cohle invites audiences into his world, proving that storytelling is not just an art form but a way to connect, and be heard.
