Artist Info - Bob Coate
"Smooth Jazz and Beyond"
​
Bob Coate is a smooth jazz composer and keyboardist originally from Massachusetts, now based in Leesburg, Virginia. After a long career in Information Technology, he shifted gears post-retirement to focus full-time on his lifelong love—making music.
A mostly self-taught musician, Coate blends smooth jazz, chillout, and light funk into his sound. His debut single, “Super Smooth,” spent five weeks on the Radiowave Top 100 smooth jazz charts, peaking at #77. Since then, his music has played on dozens of smooth jazz stations around the world and has been added to thousands of smooth jazz playlists.
Beyond his solo work, Coate has teamed up with several other artists and producers, including keyboardist/producer Sonix and more recently, producers Peet Ferencz (Peet Project) and Sandy Shore (SmoothJazz.com Global) along with saxophonist Peter Herold (formerly of Peet Project). Their track “Forward Flow” spent 20 weeks on the Top 100 smooth jazz charts in Spain and Latin America, reaching the #1 position on that chart in April 2025.
For Coate, making music isn’t just a pursuit—it’s what keeps him energized. He’s all in on creating tracks that connect, lift moods, and bring a little more groove into the world.
