Ido van der Laan
Leonard Cohen has always been a significant influence on Ido’s musical inspirations and is excited to be part of this year’s event. This year Ido’s song selections are drawn from Leonard Cohen’s first four albums, ranging from 1967-74. Ido hopes to capture the original spirit and meaning of the songs, while contributing new energy to the melodies and arrangements.
“It’s hard to hold the hand of anyone who’s reaching for the sky just to surrender”
-Leonard Cohen
