SUMMARY:Tower of Song Concert
DESCRIPTION:Tower Of Song: A Creative Tribute To Leonard Cohen\nFeaturing Oliver Swain & Glenna Garramone with special guest Daniel Lapp\nSunday\, July 14 – 7:00PM\nWhen Leonard Cohen sang about the Tower of Song\, he envisioned a place where songwriters connect through their shared craft. Inspired by this idea\, BC singer-songwriters Oliver Swain and Glenna Garramone collaborated to produce a project that is a dialogue through song and a tribute to the legendary songwriter. Reimagining both rare and classic works of Cohen\, the duo have crafted a sound that resonates with both longtime Cohen fans and a younger audience. Tower of Song began as a one-off tribute night at Vancouver’s The Media Club and has since grown into a nationally touring folk duo. They have recorded their debut album “In City and In Forest” and have toured across Canada\, playing at various theatres\, festivals\, and folk clubs.
