Chi Coltrane (born November 6, 1948) is an American rock/gospel singer, songwriter, and pianist.

She made her overseas debut when she represented the U.S. at the International Rock Festival for 50,000 people in Rio de Janeiro.

During the 1970s and 1980s in America, Chi was once dubbed "The First Lady of Rock"; and in Europe, she was once given the title "Queen of Rock"; where she was also voted "Top Female Artist" for two consecutive years,[citation needed] and held the #1 position in the "Music Express Popularity" poll.

Rolling Stone described Coltrane as a "rip-snorting female vocalist/composer/producer whose performances are nothing less than searing."

Paul Buckmaster, referring to her new song "Yesterday, Today & Forever" said; "I had to stop a few times while working on the string arrangement of 'Yesterday, Today & Forever' because of the profound emotions it stirred up in me - it is that great of a song.
