LAURA COHN has always been a creative performing artist. Growing up in Highland Park, IL, she loved to sing, tap dance, play guitar, draw and write stories. When she was in High School, she produced a student variety show for 2 years. Her parents enrolled her in flight training and she became a private pilot at 17. She graduated from Sophie Newcomb College at Tulane University with a B.A. in Political Science.
Laura began writing music after she graduated college. She pursued her own graphic design/art business in Chicago after working at a media company. Next she moved westward to Colorado in order to focus on her art. Her first performance playing her music at a coffee house in Vail led to a festival booking in Idaho Springs and recording sessions with KBCO’s Studio C in Boulder. Her song “Silver Linings†was played on the station which began her journey as a professional singer/songwriter.
Many performances, live radio shows, air play of her songs on radio stations, community television show tapings and recording sessions brought Laura from Colorado and Arizona to Los Angeles. There she wrote, produced, and performed 2 one-woman shows of her music.
Laura Cohn writes a weekly newsletter through her website, www.LauraCohnMusic.com, (which she also posts here) to voice her observations, questions and musings about her life. She is an advocate of social kindness and conveys concepts of awareness through her writing, and live performances. Laura is currently recording a new CD at Del Oro Music in Studio City, CA.
