Marc Cohn

After winning a Grammy® for his soulful ballad “Walking in Memphis,” Marc Cohn solidified his place as one of this generation’s most compelling singer-songwriters, combining the precision of a brilliant tunesmith with the passion of a great soul man. Rooted in the rich ground of American rhythm and blues, soul, and gospel and possessed of a deft storyteller’s pen, he weaves vivid, detailed, often drawn-from-life tales that evoke some of our most universal human feelings: love, hope, faith, joy, and heartbreak. 

In 2019, Cohn released a collaborative record, Work to Do, with gospel legends Blind Boys of Alabama. Released on BMG, Work to Do features three studio tracks plus seven intimate live performances recorded at the Katharine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center in Old Saybrook, Connecticut, during a taping of the PBS series The Kate. Original plans only included the release of the studio tracks on an EP, but the excitement and magic captured during the taping inspired the unique hybrid album. 

Cohn continues to do what he does best: infuse American music with both a fresh perspective and a reverence for its deep roots.
