As we enter the new millennium we find Recording Artist ~ Vocalist, Khani Cole, continuing to ride the success of her 1997 & 1998 Fahrenheit Records releases, Piece Of My Soul (1/97) & Places (6/98). Over the last five years, Khani and her band have performed over 200 nights/dates per year including, some of the most prestigious festivals and events both state-side and abroad.

Khani's assent into the national and international consciousness began after relocating to Phoenix, Arizona from her native Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1992. The move, which initiated many personal changes, sparked the inception of her very first release, Piece Of My Soul, on Fahrenheit Records. Piece Of My Soul was an album with great depth harmonically and lyrically and was quite a departure from the production and performance trends heard on NAC Radio at that time. The release caught on nationwide; specifically in markets with a more liberal radio philosophy. Piece Of My Soul featured jazz greats Brian Bromberg, Joey DeFrancesco and Marc Russo, among others as Khani and her band toured the summer of '97 and were met with an overwhelming positive response.

Khaniís follow-up release, Places, co-produced by Marion Meadows and featuring the likes of Nelson Rangell, Tony Guerrero and Johnny DeFrancesco was a NAC Radio gem and the album's first single, a cover of the classic Blood Sweat & Tears' favorite, You've Made Me So Very Happy, climb to the top 30 on the NAC Radio charts as Khani and the band played 28 U.S. cities including, Art Goodís Catalina Island Jazz Trax Festival, along with other noted festivals and events throughout the country. Khani made her first trek into Europe playing Dusseldorf and Munich, Germany as Places met with fantastic reception on European radio and with Euro- audiences.

When not home with her two daughters in Scottsdale, AZ, Khani can be found at her second home - A Different Pointe Of View at The Pointe Hilton Tapatio Cliffs in Phoenix. The Khani Cole Band including, Mel Brown (Gladys Knight, Brian McKnight, Marc Anthony), Mike Florio (Nelson Rangell, Angela Bofil, Marion Meadows) and Joey Navarro (Jennifer Page, Greg Adams, Sister Sledge) continue their unprecedented run at the world-class, mountain top resort in the heart of Phoenix. This January ('03) will mark Khani's seventh year at the resort. Khani states: "The Pointe has been a wonderful gig; I've had some of my finest professional moments there. Some of the greatest musicians and artists on the planet have come up to play with me and the band has a wonderful magic and vibe. Folks will often ask questions like, "when are you gonna' make it (laughs);" I always tell them, look around, I have made it (laughs)".
