Sunny at Lake Harriet

2008-07-19T10:35:00.004-05:00

Ahhhh, Lake Harriet is my very favorite venue! Beautiful setting, birds singing with us, sun to warm us, boats on the lake, and folks relaxing on the grass, waiting to hear the sounds of our vocal offerings. To all of you who came out to see us, thank you. There was a quite a good size crowd, and you were such a wonderful audience. Janet and I had so much fun being with you. We look forward to seeing you again next year at one of our concerts around the Twin Cities. Bring your family, friends and a picnic dinner if you like. We will update our website with our upcoming bookings, so you will know where to come to see us.
