For many of us who live in the city, there is the  warmth of homecoming when we see the skyline. Then add in summer evenings rich with lilacs, barbecue, cicadas, a ball game, laughter, a kid learning  the saxophone. The city forms its own music and,  when taken in all at once — say from a rooftop — it’s a symphony for the senses. Join  Kevin, Dan, and Simone as we celebrate this jewel on the prairie. For decades this trio has performed their stories and songs throughout the  country. Pianist/accordionist Dan Chouinard is accompanist for a who’s who of Twin  Cities performers, an enabler of community singalongs, and a writer of shows for  public radio, concert halls, and theatrical stages. He recently accompanied Garrison  Keillor and Prudence Johnson in concerts around the U.S. Monologist and playwright Kevin Kling is known for his humorous stories and thoughtful philosophizing.  He has performed in libraries, school gymnasiums, at the Kennedy Center and  off-Broadway, and at storytelling festivals around the world, and he will be performing in an upcoming theatrical collaboration with arctic explorer (and Woman’s Club  member) Will Steger. Simone Perrin has appeared on A Prairie Home Companion and has performed at the Guthrie Theater, Theater Latte Da, Open Eye Figure  Theatre, the Cincinnati Playhouse, and the Seattle Repertory Theater. She and  Kevin Kling developed two original plays: How? How? Why? Why? Why? and Breakin’  Hearts and Takin’ Names. She released her first album, Hummingbird, in 2009.
