World Cafe Playlist for 10/15/2025
Ruby Roy joins host Raina Douris
You can’t talk about Montreal and music without talking about maybe it’s most famous musical son – Leonard Cohen. On the World Cafe’s Sense of Place series, cultural tour guide and native Montrealer Ruby Roy talks about how Cohen left his mark on the city, how the city left its mark on him – and she shares her story of how she first met the musical icon, not in Montreal.
