"Here It Is" is not an individual musician or band per se, but rather a collaborative project that pays homage to the legendary work of the iconic singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen. This compilation project features an array of respected artists who come together to offer their renditions of Cohen's profound and poetically rich compositions. Each track is a thoughtful reinterpretation that carries the torch of Cohen's legacy while infusing the unique artistry of the contributing musician.

Among the project's most recent releases are emotionally charged performances by notable names such as Peter Gabriel, who lends his distinctive voice to the title track "Here It Is," and Mavis Staples, whose soulful delivery on "If It Be Your Will" adds a powerful layer of depth to Cohen's songwriting. Bill Frisell provides a delicate touch on "Bird On The Wire" with his guitar work, and Luciana Souza's rendition of "Hey, That's No Way To Say Goodbye" brings a tender and nuanced flair. Other contributors like David Gray and Immanuel Wilkins add their unique textures and interpretations, celebrating Leonard Cohen's enduring influence on musicians and songwriters across various genres. This project connects fans new and old to Cohen's timeless catalog, reaffirming his status as a master of poetic and musical artistry.
