JIFF: Classic Southside Music — Gabriella Cohen

'No matter what song it is by Gabriella Cohen - it's a winner every time.' - Claire Mooney, Triple J

Gabriella Cohen is back with her third record, Blue No More.

It’s been a minute. You’ve been patient, but it’s been well worth the wait…

Living in a shotgun house in New Orleans, to slinging hot dogs on Elwood beach, Cohen has done it again, whipped up the best record she’s written to date.

Rolling Stone declared Cohen will be ‘a household name in no time’, NME said she reflects ‘the voice of humanity’ and Pitchfork hailed her as a ‘clever and wise-cracking songwriter’.  She's been nominated for the prestigious Australian Music Prize, not to mention an AIR nominee for Best Blues and Roots Album.

Whilst keeping true to her laidback, tongue in cheek demeanour, peppered with throwbacks to 60’s girl groups and a Lou Reed-esque drawl, Cohen has transcended the borders of her own musical limitations, presenting to us a new and evolved musical landscape. 

You’ll just have to hear it to believe it. Introducing, Blue No More.
