“Superb” - John Litweiler (Chicago Sun-Times)
“….Relentless Invention” - Howard Reich (Chicago Tribune)
“Lorin Cohen's bass work raises itself to a level where it must be noticed. His solo on "Song For My Grandfather" (Ryan Cohan/Another Look/Motema Records 2010) captures the song's sensitivity, but also pushes it forward rhythmically” - Alex Mariani (All About Jazz)
A thrill to watch and sublime to hear, Lorin Cohen is best known for locking down the groove with Monty Alexander, Joe Locke, Guggenheim Fellow Ryan Cohan, and the acclaimed hip-hop-meets-jazz ensemble, Vertikal.While he possesses an expansive palate of expressive devices and techniques, the focus of his playing is always on generating a deep and propulsive groove. This has taken him around the world, allowing him to share his talents with audiences throughout North and South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, the Middle East and the Caribbean.
In addition to those mentioned above, he has collaborated with such jazz luminaries as Lew Tabakin, Victor Lewis, Geoffrey Keezer, Von Freeman and Roni Ben-Hur.
He will bring his unique brand of modern jazz to his forthcoming debut album, HOME.
Slated for release in October of 2014, the acclaimed bassist and composer steps out as a leader to present a set of original compositions which will appeal to a wide spectrum of music fans and jazz lovers alike.
