He is known most for his trumpet contributions in the Sun Ra Arkestra in Chicago during 1959-1961 and for his involvement in the foundation of the AACM. He was playing the harp as well as cornet, as well as other brass instruments, such as the french horn and baritone saxophone and percussion.
His tenure in the Arkestra is documented on records such as Fate In A Pleasant Mood and Angels and Demons at Play.
When the Arkestra moved from Chicago in 1961, Cohran declined to accompany them. In 1965 he participated in the formation of the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM). Cohran formed the Artistic Heritage Ensemble with Pete Cosey, future members of the Earth, Wind and Fire horn section and "Master" Henry Gibson (the Motown house percussionist) among others.
Cohran's sons make up eight of the nine members of Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, a street ensemble consisting of brass and drums. Cohran taught voice and music to inner city youth and adults at Northeastern Illinois University's Center for Inner City Studies.
