Outstanding singers Pauline Scanlon and Galway band The Whileaways explore their own interpretations of the wonderfully rich music and words of the icon that was Leonard Cohen.
They lead a masterful ensemble including Will Merrigan (bass), Dave Clancy (keys), Matthew Berrill (saxophone) and Eamon Murray (drums) with lush string arrangements bringing the elegance of the performances to life.
These accomplished singers and musicians will come together on the Grand Opera House stage to deliver an emotionally charged performance sure to delight Leonard Cohen fans and folk fans in equal measure. Belfast audiences will no doubt be entranced by this beautiful evening of music celebrating the work of a legend.
Pauline Scanlon galvanised the Irish music scene with her stunning debut album, Red Colour Sun, over ten years ago. As a solo artist and as a member of vocal duo LUMIERE, Scanlon has entranced audiences the world over with her distinctly delicate intensity.
The Whileaways are three powerful forces in Irish roots music: Noelie McDonnell, Noriana Kennedy and Nicola Joyce combine to create a beguiling tapestry of harmonies, tradition and beautifully crafted original songs. They have released three critically acclaimed albums, toured all over the world, and been nominated for Best Group and Best Album in the RTÉ Folk Awards.
