about

To sing Leonard Cohen is a daring project. His many fans are devoted and very sensitive. You have to tread very carefully not to offend anyone.

In that sense, Swedish vocalist Lena Måndotter is almost foolhardy to release her new album »Songs of Leonard Cohen«. But after singing these songs live all over Sweden for over a year, she can be pretty confident that this album will go down well, even among the most loyal Cohen fans. Lena Måndotter had in fact no plan to record the songs at all, but the reactions at her shows have been so strong the she had to reconsider. So this is actually an album released due to public demand. And now it's here: »Songs of Leonard Cohen«.

Lena Måndotter recorded the songs with a small, acoustic band with the ambition to perform the songs in a personal but still respectful way. Chello, guitars, bouzouki, mandola. The arrangements are tasteful, yet imaginative. And they create the perfect backup to Lena Måndotter's magnificent, deep voice.
