Leading Leonard Cohen tribute act takes to the stage of Dolans Warehouse this Friday

The magical musical legacy of Leonard Cohen will be recreated in Limerick this Friday night as one of the leading Cohen tribute acts take to the stage of Dolans Warehouse. The Leonard Cohen Tribute band is a Dutch ten-piece band that will perform a two-hour tribute to the work of the singer, poet and writer who died in 2016.

What started as a simple wish of Dutch musician Rinus van den Boomen to perform the work of his musical idol has grown into a beautiful, complete act that has become a popular addition in venues across Europe. The Leonard Cohen Tribute Band is currently touring their ‘In My Secret Life’ tribute show across Europe. The show, which has received raved reviews will feature all the great musical works by Cohen including unforgettable songs such as Suzanne, So Long Marianne and Hallelujah. Featuring violin, saxophone, piano, guitar, accordion, percussion and vocals, the Leonard Cohen Tribute band is led by Dutch musician Rinus van den Boomen who has been performing Cohen’s work for many years.
