COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL • DECEMBER 19, 2018 • 7A Seattle singer plans soulful Solstice show in Cottage Grove By Caitlyn May cmay@cgsentinel.com Last year, Jill Cohn wasn’t think- ing about writing music. She had just gotten out of a seven-year relationship that saw her pick up and move from Seat- tle to Colorado. Th e last thing on her mind was resuming a touring schedule or creating new songs. “I didn’t want to write a break-up record,” she said in a phone inter- view from Washington. “I was fo- cused on healing my broken heart but then things started getting nice in my life. I was feeling happy again and having a more positive outlook on my future and I started writing songs.” She took those songs with her on tour, mostly traveling between Washington and Oregon, getting back into the groove. “Two songs came down the pike. One called ‘Possibilities’ and one called ‘Legends’ and I thought I was ready to make another re- cord,’” Cohn said. Th e result was Balanced on the Rail, a record Cohn will be releas- ing in Cottage Grove on Dec. 21 PHOTO C/O JILL COHEN Seattle recording artist Jill Cohn will perform this Friday at the Cottage Grove Events Venue. ing homage to Joni Mitchell, Sar- ah McLachlan and the Counting Crows, she says it’s not that cut and dry. during a Winter Solstice Concert at the Cottage Grove Events Venue. While Cohn’s promotional ma- terial describes her music as pay- When Cohn fi nally felt ready to make music again aft er her break- up, she contacted her old band in Seattle and the group recorded the record over the span of six days. Now, Cohn is taking the record on tour. “Even now when everyone has hundred of songs on their phone, live shows are important. I just connect with an audience,” she said. Th e 7 p.m., Dec. 21 show is fam- ily-friendly, according to Cohen and is priced on a sliding scale. En- try starts between $5 and $10 per person. “I’m super excited about it and I’m excited to do a Solstice concert because not everyone celebrates Christmas or Hanukkah so it’s nice to have a gathering for folks about the season in general,” she said. “It’s all on a sliding scale, whatever folks can aff ord because of the hol- iday season and money is tight.” CDs will also be available for sale during the concert and Cohn’s mu- sic can be found online at reverb- nation.com/jillcohn. “Th e hardest thing in the world to do is describe your own mu- sic,” she said. “I’m always fl attered when I have those comparisons to Joni Mitchell or Counting Crows because that’s the music I cut my creative cloth from. More than anything though, I’m a folk artist and a songwriter. I hope to con- tribute my experience with some- thing that matters to people and that they can connect with.” Cohn started connecting with people through music in her home city of Seattle where she got her footing as a musician. “I started writing songs and put out my fi rst CD and then I realized, you know, playing shows was going to be the way to get that out to peo- ple,” she said. “I love traveling so I started doing small trips. At fi rst it was just here and there and then it became my full-time occupation.” Eventually, Cohn landed open- ing gigs for Jewel and Dave Mat- thews. In 2001, she was a top fi ve fi nalist in the Lilith Fair Talent Search and since 1999, has released 12 independent releases — some appearing on popular television shows. Sheriff ’s offi ce off ers travel tips to keep holidays safe, happy too overwhelming. Is there a scenic drive that might be longer but have less traffi c? Pack snacks and drinks so you and your family will be fueled for the road trip. Break up a long drive by fi nding a few places to stop that will help keep the kids excited about the trip. If you’re fl ying, defi nitely get some food before you board the plane. Leave ex- Wherever you’re heading, if you’re traveling during the holiday season, remem- ber that everyone else in the world is also. Don’t let terri- ble drivers, security scanners and long lines at the airport get you down. Here are some tips to help you survive the holiday travel. Plan ahead: Plan alternative trips if traffi c makes your way home Imagine The Difference You Can Make DONATE YOUR CAR 1-844-533-9173 FREE TOWING TAX DEDUCTIBLE tra time before fl ights to get through security and plan your fl ights to allow extra time between connections. Follow these fl ying tips: • When fl ying, make sure you check the airline’s re- strictions ahead of time for carry-on luggage and fees for checked bags. • Avoid checking bags altogether if you can. You won’t have to wait for your luggage on the conveyor belt and you won’t have to wor- ry about your things getting lost. • If you do check luggage, make sure you have all your medications, important documents and maybe even a change of clothes in your carry-on in case your lug- gage does get lost. Pack earplugs: One of the best ways to mentally escape your stress- ful surroundings is to turn down the volume. Th e eas- iest way to do that is with earplugs. If there is a crying baby near you on the plane, put in the earplugs. If the music in the car is driving you crazy, put in the ear- plugs.

Ship gift s ahead of time or buy the gift that can’t go wrong: gift cards to a favorite store. Travel early or late in the day: Flight statistics show that planes traveling earlier in the day have a better on- time perfor-mance. And if your fl ight is canceled, you will have the option of tak- ing a fl ight later in the day. Also, there will be fewer lines at security. Best time to hit the road? When ev- eryone else is asleep — early morning or late night. You can always take a nap when you arrive at your des- tination or on the ride there if you aren’t the driver. Also, travel on off -peak days. Remember to breathe: Th e overly friendly per- son on the plane, canceled fl ights, the luggage that fell off in the middle of the highway, can be stressful. But remember to relax and breathe. Th ese will make great sto- ries to share when you fi nally make it to your destination. Aft er all, holiday travel stress is just as much a tradition as pumpkin pie and re-gift ing. For more tips, visit www. lincolncounty sheriff .net. Hopper upgrade fee $5/mo.
