Leonard Cohen tours are rare, and international shows are even rarer. So it’s a real surprise to hear the Canadian troubadour is winging his way to Oz next year for some winery and theatre shows.
Promoter Michael Gudinski says fans are in for a real treat.
“The Leonard Cohen concert I saw last month was almost a religious experience. Fans were captivated the moment Leonard walked out onto the stage. His band and backing vocalists are first class, and the man himself can only be described as magical. It’s one of the few concerts that I’ve seen that has kept me in one spot from start to finish – not wanting to miss a moment of what ended up being more than three hours of musical genius,” he enthused in a statement.
Leonard will be ably supported by Australia’s own singing balladeer Paul Kelly. What a double act!
