Album now available for download! Coles Whalen's 5th recording, I Wrote This for You, is a 13 song full length album recorded in Nashville, TN. "It isn’t just sheer will that’s gotten Whalen to where she is today. Her homespun blend of bluesy, swampy folk has something to do with it. On “Wake Up Easy” Whalen breezily sings, “You’re making coffee, making the bed / I kind of feel like making something else instead.” A languorous piano, creaking washboard and softly shaken percussion help create a mood of sleepy-eyed seduction." - Kate B, Ourstage
