Cape Porpoise-based singer-songwriter Sara Cox’s last album, “Crowded is the New Lonely,” came out in 2008.

Thankfully, she’s back with a new song called “Draw the Line” featuring Paul Lachance on mandolin,  her daughter Lila Schrock on harmonies, and Michael McInnis on keys. It’s available on all streaming platforms.
