Low Millions was a pop-rock band from California led by Canadian singer/songwriter Adam Cohen, son of Leonard Cohen.
When Adam Cohen was in-between solo records in 2004, he was approached by Capitol Records for English-language material after signing him to a deal for what would be his French language solo album Mélancolista. He auditioned for Manhattan Records in New York City, and was signed after 15 minutes of a solo acoustic performance, which led to the formation of Low Millions.[1]
Ex-Girlfriends
[edit]Low Millions' only album, Ex-Girlfriends, yielded two singles, "Eleanor" and "Statue". "Eleanor" reached the Top 5 of Billboard's Triple A chart and the Top 30 of the Adult Top 40 chart in late 2004.[2]
All of the songs in Ex-Girlfriends were written by Cohen, with co-writes with Tonio K, Davitt Sigerson and Jay Joyce. Cohen was also producer or co-producer of some of the songs, with others produced by Keith Forsey, Patrick Leonard, David Kahne, and Brian Reeves.
Concert performances
[edit]Low Millions played a number of concerts in 2004 and 2005, opening up for Collective Soul, Vanessa Carlton, John Fogerty, and Gavin DeGraw among others.
