For 30 years strong, Cory M. Coons has been an Independent Musician, Singer, Performer and now Award Winning and Nominated Songwriter. Growing up in Eastern Ontario (South of Ottawa), Canada, he has been passionate about music since his early teen years while cutting his teeth playing guitar, bass, and singing in his High School days.
We’re excited to premiere the official music video for Cory’s new single “Good Times Gone”
“I like to think the overall vibe of this song touches on our current times and state of being. Yet, also reflecting on better days gone by, while awakening our human spirit inside to a “re-birth” of life and new beginnings… A real sense of “Quality” of life vs. Quantity, and the true honesty we should try to portray while staying in touch with ourselves and being grounded”. – Cory M. Coons on “Good Times Gone”
It features some stellar playing and musicianship from my good friend and lead guitarist Marc D. Muir once again… Along with the supremely talented Chris Golden (Son of William Lee Golden of Oak Ridge Boys fame) who sent us some beautiful mandolin stuff, and who I have kept in touch with since last year’s JMA’s (Josie Music Awards). The talented Scott Savage, (formerly of “Jars Of Clay”) played percussion and drums on the song. And also Ben Travis did Bass and Hammond Organ. Ben is also the owner of “Two Cats Music” studio, where the track was recorded and mixed in Nashville TN.
Cory’s influences are a collection of various genres like Melodic Rock and Roots-Rock, blended with hints of Country-Rock. He is a respected Freelance Guitar Instructor in the local St. Lawrence Seaway Valley, ON. Cory has opened and performed alongside such treasured National Canadian like like April Wine, Kim Mitchell, Glass Tiger and David Wilcox.
New EP, “33.3” is available on July 6, 2020 on MTS Records. Follow Cory at any of the links below:
