A Thousand Kisses Deep with  Christine Tobin   vocals & Phil Robson guitar is a beautiful re-working of eleven   Leonard Cohen songs alongside some choice  originals. In her own   writing, Christine Tobin specializes in  idiosyncratic, highly musical   poetic vignettes with a strong sense of  story, so it's no surprise  that  she weaves magic with the profound,  sensual songs of Cohen, and  in her  musical settings of WB Yeats and  contemporary Irish poet Paul  Muldoon.  S|he has chosen the  Cohen songs from his early 1960s albums  through to  his 2001 release ‘Ten New Songs’. The live show of ‘A  Thousand Kisses  Deep’ won a prestigious Herald Angel Award at the Edinburgh Fringe and the album received rave reviews. (see below). More info on Christine here: www.christinetobin.org  Phil Robson www.philrobsonmusic.com is a renowned UKborn  jazz guitarist. He has worked with a diverse array of artists including Maceo Parker, Kurt Elling, Barbra Streisand & Jean  Toussaint, Brian Byrne, BBC Big Band etc.

"Christine Tobin is inspiring on her own material. But  she is in    a class of her own singing Leonard Cohen. Her new version  of  “Everybody Knows” is stunning… Gorgeous, affecting and deeply  human.”
