A celebration of music and poetry and the songs of Leonard Cohen.
Join poet/singer-songwriter Gabriel Moreno and singer-songwriter Jason McNiff for a night of music and lyrics as they celebrate the 90th birthday year of the great Leonard Cohen.
McNiff and Moreno will be accompanied by the Brothers of Mercy: Richard Moore on violin, Matt Armstrong on double bass and Alice Jelaska on clarinet. The band will perform a selection of compelling Cohen classics plus a series of their own songs which pay tribute to Cohen's magical formula of merging poetry and music.
