After winning a GRAMMY® for his soulful ballad “Walking in Memphis,” Marc Cohn 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 American rhythm and blues, soul, and gospel, he weaves vivid, drawn-from-life tales that evoke universal feelings of love, hope, and heartbreak. His recent work includes the collaborative record “Work To Do” with gospel legends Blind Boys of Alabama, a unique hybrid album featuring studio tracks and intimate live performances recorded for the PBS series The Kate. Moving forward, Cohn continues to infuse American music with both a fresh perspective and a reverence for its deep roots. 

Three-time GRAMMY Award winner Shawn Colvin has been a vital voice in music for over 30 years, releasing thirteen superlative albums and establishing herself as one of America’s most revered songwriters and performers. Colvin was recognized for her career accomplishments in 2016 when she was honored with the Lifetime Achievement Trailblazer Award by the Americana Music Association. In September 2019 she was inducted into the 2019 Austin City Limits Hall of Fame, alongside legendary artists Lyle Lovett and Buddy Guy. Shawn continues to tour globally, while working on an album of new music.
