This concert is being hosted by Grassroots Regina and takes the form of a Leonard Cohen tribute by Oliver Swain and Glenna Garramone. They’re based in B.C., and have performed similar tributes before, which offer a mix of classic and rarely performed Cohen compositions with a handful of original compositions by Swain and Garramone mixed in.
The concert goes Thursday night at the SCES Club at 8 p.m. and tickets are $15. To give you a sense of what to expect, here’s their version of “Famous Blue Raincoat”:
