On the day when Leonard Cohen would have turned 84, three young singers will come together in the Athens Concert Hall’s gardens to perform songs the late singer-songwriter branded with his low-toned, distinctive style. Nalyssa Green, Sugahspank and Lou Is promise to take listeners on a journey throu...
