Phil Cohen blends indie rock and lyric-driven folk into a lush soundscape, representing the many versions of his life. Hailing from rural Vermont, Phil spent his formative musical years in NYC where he also worked as a nurse. Informed by this unique perspective of humanity and a deep love for words, his songs flow effortlessly between lucidity and dream state. His latest work, I Put the Day Away, explores themes of existential dread, lost love, religion, and letting go of the past.
