Jill Cohn Band comes to Cortez

National artist Jill Cohn returns to Colorado with her trio and latest release, “Beautiful I Love You” on Friday, Sept. 20, in Cortez at Mr. Happy’s for an 8 p.m. show. 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.
