It is with a heavy heart that we announce that poet, singer, songwriter, novelist, Leonard Cohen has died at the age of 82. Adam Cohen, his son, said: “My father passed away peacefully at his home in Los Angeles with the knowledge that he had completed what he felt was one of his greatest records. He was writing up until his last moments with his unique brand of humor.”
Young fans not familiar with Cohen’s hit ‘Everybody Knows’ from 1990’s Pump Up the Volume ... may have heard his incredibly wonderful song ‘Nevermind’ on HBO’s True Detective Season 2.
UPDATE: In a statement released Wednesday, Cohen’s manager Robert Kory said Cohen died in his sleep after falling on November 7th.
Below are more deaths for the month of November - for the full death list: Musicians who died in 2016.
