SEE EVENT DETAILS
Sharon Robinson - The Words and The Music: My Time with Leonard Cohen
Sharon Robinson, Grammy-winning songwriter, singer, and record producer, will headline the San Francisco Leonard Cohen Festival and will top off the festivities on Sunday, November 10th. Born in San Francisco and raised in Los Angeles, Robinson has written songs for The Pointer Sisters, Don Henley, Patti LaBelle, Diana Ross, Aaron Neville, and many others. She is perhaps best known as Leonard Cohen's principal collaborator, having co-written several songs with him, including "Everybody Knows" and "In My Secret Life", and having produced and co-written the album, Ten New Songs, which was named one of the Top 100 albums of the decade by Rolling Stone Magazine. Sharon's association with Cohen spanned nearly 40 years, including performing as one of the singers on his 'Grand Tour" of 2008-2013. She also photographed his final tour for her book, "On Tour with Leonard Cohen - Photographs by Sharon Robinson" for PowerHouse Books. Sharon has been touring a multi-media one-woman show to captive audiences in the United States and Canada. She has also released three solo albums of original music and an EP of cover songs. Sharon is currently working on new material for an album and a book.
Check out all three nights of the San Francisco Leonard Cohen Festival November 8, 9, 10!
The Conspiracy of Beards (COB) and the 2024 San Francisco Leonard Cohen Festival are supported, in part, by a California Small Business COVID-19 Relief Grant, Craig Newmark Philanthropies and Mistler & Associates Private CEO Groups | drmistler.com/results.
