"The songs on the absence of Moving pour out of the pseakers like rianwater-clear, life-giving and cool"
--PERFORMING SONGWRITER
Her critically acclaimed 4th CD, "the absence of Moving" has been embraced by AAA Radio and internet radio with the song, Louisiana Lover still getting attention on airways nation wide.
A true veteran of the road, the Seattle singer's piano & guitar based solo tours highlight her soul-stirring voice and well crafted songs with issues ranging from domestic violence, the shrinking rain forest to discovering one's own inner spirit.
Jill was picked as an opener for the "girls room" tour and was a top 5 finalist in the Lilith Fair Talent search in Seattle, Portland, and Phoenix. In addition to headlineing concerts in Seattle, and Los Angeles, she has shared stages with Tara MacLean, Loundon Wainwright III, David Mallett, Ellis Paul, Dona Delory, Cheryl Wheeler and many others.
Raised in a small town in Eastern Washington, Cohn recalls being involved in music from her earliest memories: "My mom used to be able to find me playing, because she would just follow the sound of me singing to myself, and when I wasn't bugging my big sisters, I was making up songs on the Piano rather than practicing my lessons". After teaching herself guitar on her dad's old Gibson, and purchasing an electric piano, she took to the road in '96, with her 20 pound cat, Tosca, and has kept a non-stop tour schedule ever since.
Her concerts continue to draw growing and enthusiastic audiences wherever she performs. Her music draws many comparisons, with most press, radio & concert promoters likening her music to the works of Joni Mitchell.
-Album Network called Cohn's music "strong on vocals with piercing lyrics and Lovely melodies."
-Weekly Alibi said "the absence of Moving is Cohn's sexiest effort yet".
