Bill Cohen's Valentine Concert: The Ups and Downs of Love
Serious and comical love songs, fun trivia questions, and delicious home-made sweets will highlight the 15th annual Valentines concert by Bill Cohen and friends from 7:00 to 9 pm on Friday February 2.
With guitar and piano, Bill will sing favorites from the 1940’s through the 1990’s, made famous by John Denver, the Everly Brothers, John Prine, Sam Cooke, James Taylor, Sting, Patti Page, Johnny Mathis, and even “Weird Al” Yankovic. Bill promises that this year’s show will be a refreshed version with several new songs and new surprises.
Ann Fisher will be on hand to add some romantic flute accompaniment on several songs. David Maywhoor will keep the beat on percussion, and Brian Szuch will add extra sparkle on lead guitar. Plus, the all-girl trio, The Harmonettes, will sing smooth backup vocals.
While the songs will reflect the ecstasy, warmth, heartache, and pain that love can bring, there will be a lighter side too, as Bill poses trivia questions about famous and infamous couples and love songs throughout the decades.
The concert takes place at the Columbus Mennonite Church, 35 Oakland Park Avenue. $15 per person donations are suggested at the door, with proceeds helping put on this May’s Central Ohio Folk Festival.
Did we mention the free and delicious home-made cookies and goodies right after the show? Yep, we’ll have them, so stick around till the end, enjoy the treats, and schmooze with the musical cast.
