The evening will feature musical talent from across the Isle of Wight, who’ll present their interpretations of Cohen’s work in this celebration of the life of the Canadian songwriter and poet behind ‘Suzanne’ and ‘Hallelujah’.

Expect Cohen tributes from CHAMPS, The Ventnor Darlings, King Stammers and many more.

The event takes place on Saturday 28th January at the brilliant Ventnor Exchange, Church Street, Ventnor.
