Singer / Songwriter returns with first Studio Album in
Nine Years

Born July 5, 1959 and grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, singer/songwriter Marc Cohn rose to fame in 1991 with the hit single, “Walking in Memphis” from his self-entitled album. Additionally, he won a Grammy Award® for Best New Artist.

Marc experienced several life-changing events since his debut album, including suffering from major writer block for years. In 2002, he married ABC News anchor Elizabeth Vargas (20/20). While on tour in 2005, he was shot in the head during a random attempted carjacking after a concert in Denver. Then, several weeks later Hurricane Katrina hit the New Orleans area. These events are what enabled Marc to reconnect with his songwriting and helped inspire the release of his Decca album, "Join the Parade."

In this 2007 interview with host Cindy Rhodes, Marc talks about his life-changing events, meeting his wife, some of the songs from the "Join The Parade" CD, and how he picks his music for a CD release.
