Corey Hart
Corey Hart plays the music you wish you'd grown up to - an eclectic blend of folk, rock, and a little bit of soul. This Wisconsinite's earthy sound will tantalize your eardrums while his stage presence will captivate your eyes. Even at the earliest stages in his Madison music career, a Corey Hart show was something not to be missed.

"Every time he performed at an Open Mic a hush would fall across the crowd as everyone sat there amazed by his voice. It was pure magic!"
Singer/ Songwriter Mark Croft.

After only a few shows in his adopted hometown of Madison, WI this Berklee dropout found himself rising to the top of the local music scene. Hart recently earned the title of Madison’s Songwriter of the Year.

Hart is “…certainly walking in Jeff Buckley land here. Nice work!”
Singer/Songwriter Sean Michael Dargan

Shortly after his award-winning performance, Corey spent some time recording at Smart Studios. His resulting new EP "Words Like Wildfire" is certain to bring national attention. Featuring stripped down production that emphasis substance over studio tricks "Words Like Wildfire" captures his awesome voice and amazing songwriting. Whether telling tales of betrayal and murder (Room in Your Heart), wearing his heart on his sleeve (Designed To Be A Fool), or dealing with the power of regret (A Haunting Smile), the five tracks on "Words Like Wildfire" showcase Corey at his best.

After taking some time off from his early music career to finish up his education at the University of Wisconsin and polishing his performance skills, Corey is back and better then ever. It may take a little more work to see him these days, standing in line at your favorite venue rather than walking down the street to your favorite coffeehouse, but the payoff is bigger. While his shows have always found a way of unlocking fans hearts, his most recent performances bring more edge and catharsis, a carefully clear hysteria that revives the listener and enriches the soul. With future shows in Madison, Milwaukee, Chicago, and the Twin Cities, it is clear that Corey is one of the fastest rising stars in the Midwest music scene.

"This guy is the Real Deal!" - Buddy Mondlock, Performing Songwriter
