Saturday, February 1, 7pm, Columbus Mennonite Church, 35 Oakland Park Ave.

Serious and comical love songs, fun trivia questions, and delicious home-made sweets will highlight the 15th annual Valentine’s concert by Bill Cohen and friends from 7pm to 9pm on Saturday, February 1.

With guitar and piano, Bill will sing favorites, from the 1940s through the 1990s, made famous by John Denver, the Everly Brothers, Sam Cooke, James Taylor, Sting, Patti Page, and even “Weird Al” Yankovic.

Ann Fisher will be on hand to add some romantic flute accompaniment on several songs. David Maywhoor will keep the beat on percussion, and Dean Gledhill 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. Plus, expect a couple of surprises.

The concert will take place at the Columbus Mennonite Church, 35 Oakland Park Ave. $15 per person donations are suggested at the door, with proceeds helping put on this May’s Central Ohio Folk Festival.

Stick around till the end, enjoy the treats, and schmooze with the musical cast.

There is free parking along Oakland Park Ave. and in nearby lots owned by North Broadway Methodist Church.

Come alone or bring your sweetheart!
