“After 20 songs and two encores, Marc Cohn was still pouring out his passion…” said the CHICAGO TRIBUNE (Live Performance Review). “Cohn has a great ear for melody and a keen eye for detail that immediately grabs your attention and rewards the listener with repeated plays,” says ALL MUSIC. “Passionate, soulful…” states the LOS ANGELES TIMES. “Cohn has one of rock’s most soulful croons…a rich, immediately recognizable tenor”” raves ROLLING STONE.
GRAMMY® Winning and Platinum-Selling Singer & Songwriter MARC COHN?s soulful ballad "Walking in Memphis," 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 & 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, heartbreak. Cohn won the GRAMMY® for "Best New Artist" at the 34th Annual Grammy Awards, and "Walking in Memphis" (from Cohn's debut album) was Nominated for "Song of the Year." Cohn's album 'Listening Booth: 1970', a collection of cover songs, peaked at #28 on the Billboard 200 Album Chart. In addition to crossing genres from rock to soul to folk & pop, it is Cohn's highest charting album. "Marc is one of the most soulful, talented artists I know," says BONNIE RAITT.
