He was born and raised in Michigan and moved to Black Mountain in 2022 to be a part of the C7 Cohort. Koehn recently graduated from Excel College with an emphasis in Audio Engineering, and currently lives on campus where he works as a House Captain and Worship Leader. Koehn says, “I’ve always been deeply moved by music, and my love for other people’s songs inspired me to write my own. It was never just entertainment for me. I found myself invested in the artist’s lives and the stories that inspired the music, always trying to appreciate it for all that the artist intended. Creating my own music was the means by which I further understood the music that I was so impacted by. I began writing short, simple songs, and soon found myself turning to songwriting as my key way of understanding my own life and the lives of those around me. ”
