Among the manifold garbage fire-y aspects of the 2017 Grammy Awards, one of the least forgivable was the lack of a suitable tribute to Leonard Cohen. This year’s Juno Awards, however, will feature just that in the form of multi-Juno Award winner Feist performing “a moving arrangement of one of Cohen’s classic songs,” per a press release. Cohen, a Montreal native, of course bears special significance for the Canadian Juno awards. Some of Cohen’s most iconic songs, such as “Suzanne” and “Sisters of Mercy,” take place in Montreal.
