Lobero LIVE presents the MARC COHN TRIO Tuesday, April 10 at the Lobero Theatre
Santa Barbara, CA, March 22, 2018 – Lobero LIVE presents Marc Cohn in a trio format on Tuesday, April 10 at 8 PM. After winning a GRAMMYÒ award for his soulful ballad “Walking in Memphis,” Marc Cohn solidified his place as one of this generation’s most compelling singer/songwriters. He’s a natural storyteller, balancing the exuberant with the poignant, and able to distill universal truth out of his often romantic, drawn-from-life tales.
Cohn followed up his platinum-selling debut with two more releases in the 1990’s, at which point TIME magazine called him, "one of the honest, emotional voices we need in this decade" and Bonnie Raitt declared, "Marc is one of the most soulful, talented artists I know. I love his songs, he's an incredible singer, and I marvel at his ability to mesmerize every audience he plays for."
Bonnie Raitt, James Taylor, David Crosby, Graham Nash and Patty Griffin all made guest appearances on Cohn’s early records, as his reputation as an artist and performer continued to grow. In 1998, Cohn took a decade-long sabbatical from recording, ending in 2007 with Join the Parade, inspired by the horrific events following Hurricane Katrina and his own near fatal shooting. On March 25, 2016, in celebration of the 25th anniversary of his platinum-selling debut album, Marc proudly released Careful What you Dream: Lost Songs and Rarities and the bonus album, Evolution of a Record, featuring never-before-heard songs and demos dating back to years before his debut album.
“Cohn has one of rock’s most soulful croons –a rich immediately recognizable tenor that makes these songs his own.” – Rolling Stone
