Cohn revisited another corner of American music's rich heritage with gospel legends Blind Boys of Alabama on the Grammy®-nominated song "Let My Mother Live," and he worked with David Crosby on the album Lighthouse. In 2019, Cohn will release a collaborative record with The Blind Boys of Alabama titled Work to Do on August 9. Cohn continues to do what he does best: infuse American music with both a fresh perspective and a reverence for its deep roots.

"In the years that preceded the release of his Decca album Join the Parade, Marc Cohn passed through several life-changing events. These events are what enabled him to reconnect with his songwriting muse, and they are in large part, what make Join the Parade an artistic, insightful and soulful statement.
Despite his time away from the recording studio, the acclaimed singer/songwriter, winner of the 1991 Grammy Award for Best New Artist, has continued to perform live and his audiences have remained steadfast. He endured the pain of divorce, but in 2002 he married news anchor Elizabeth Vargas. He struggled with writer's block and sought to break through it with a month-long tour in the summer of 2005. The gigs went great until the night of August 7, 2005. That's when Marc Cohn was shot in the head during a random attempted carjacking after a concert in Denver."
