Seattle Singer, Jill Cohn Duo in Concert
Seattle
Songstress, Jill Cohn returns to the road in 2014 with a new release, "Yellow
Rose" produced by Grammy Award Winning
Producer Malcolm Burn, who has credits with Bob Dylan, Daniel Lanois and is
best known for his production on "Red Dirt Girl", by EmmyLou Harris. After hearing Jill's song,
"Yellow Rose" which is about the struggles of the common man against
corporate America, Burns invited the Seattle Songstress to record with him in
his studio. This collaboration has resulted in a stunning new collection
of deeply personal songs with a universal message of hope.
Cohn's songs
pay homage to artists like Joni Mitchell, Sarah McLachlan and the Counting
Crows, with tunes ranging from personal reflections to musical contemplations
of domestic violence and vanishing rain forests. Raised in a small town in
Eastern Washington, Cohn started singing before she started talking, and music
has always been an integral part of her journey. A full-time musician since
1999, Cohn has released nine critically-acclaimed independent releases,
has gained notoriety with her songs placed in popular TV shows and
continues making her live shows the centerpiece of her musical
endeavors. In addition to being an endorsee of Taylor Guitars and Elixir
Strings since 2001, she was a top five finalist in the Lilith Fair Talent
Search and has opened for many well-known artists including Jewel and Dave
Matthews.
