One of Canada's most beloved songwriters, Leonard Cohen has announced extensive tour dates for this coming fall. The 77-year-old will be playing European shows throughout late summer and early fall, but will return to his home continent for a North American tour that kicks off on October 31 in Austin, TX.
A number of dates are scheduled in Western Canada for Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton and Saskatoon before Cohen heads to his hometown Montreal on November 28. The Canadian leg of the tour wraps up with concerts in Quebec City, Toronto, Ottawa, London and Kingston, while the entire tour will come to a close with two shows in New York City at the end of December.
Cohen released Old Ideas earlier this year, and you can check out Exclaim!'s recent Timeline feature on him over here. His upcoming tour dates are listed below.
