Eddie Cohn’s new single Get Back My Way, feels like both a reflection and a renewal. After taking time away to explore other parts of life, Cohn has returned to music with a piece that leans on honesty, simplicity, and a return to his roots. The song embraces an organic sound, with acoustic guitar and warm instrumentation creating a grounded space for his voice to shine. It’s about slowing down and reconnecting, both with music and with life, and that theme runs through every note.
From the start, the track has a stripped-down feel that lets the songwriting stand front and center. Cohn’s vocals carry a natural tone that blends grit with tenderness, giving the lyrics a sense of lived experience. There’s no unnecessary clutter here. Instead, each instrument plays its part with purpose. The acoustic guitar leads the way, steady and warm, while subtle synth layers add atmosphere without overpowering the mix. The supporting musicians elevate the song beautifully. Brett Farkas’s electric guitar textures bring depth, Dan Lutz’s bass lines move with ease, and Jake Reed’s percussion holds everything together with a gentle but steady drive. The strings, arranged and performed by Philip Peterson, add an emotional lift, giving the track a richness that contrasts with its otherwise simple arrangement.
Get Back My Way feels reflective and grateful. It doesn’t preach, but instead speaks to the need for balance, the importance of grounding yourself when life feels too loud, and the value of appreciating the small things. The song captures that feeling of stepping away from the noise of the world and finding peace in clarity. What makes this release special is how personal it feels. It’s not just another single; it’s a statement of where Eddie Cohn is at this point in his life and career. You can hear influences like Tom Petty and Eddie Vedder in his delivery, but the song never loses its individuality. It feels like Cohn taking stock of where he’s been and moving forward with a stronger sense of who he is. Get Back My Way is a reminder that music doesn’t always have to be big or overproduced to connect. Sometimes, it’s the simple, heartfelt songs that resonate the most. This track is one of those — steady, thoughtful, and full of quiet strength.
