Lou and Peter Berryman Perform at White Gull Inn

The singer/songwriter duo Lou and Peter Berryman will be featured in concert Jan. 11 at the White Gull Inn in Fish Creek. Tickets for the 8 pm concert, the third in a series of six, are $16.

The Berrymans were some of the first folk musicians booked at the White Gull winter concert series, established in 1985, and have returned for a sold out performance each January for the past 26 years. Critics describe their original music as “intelligent and wickedly funny material which is never bawdy or risqué but is rich with wordplay and witty images.”

Lou and Peter Berryman began their musical partnership in high school in Appleton, Wisconsin, in the ‘60s. By the ‘80s, they had established themselves as a prominent feature of the songwriting subculture of Wisconsin’s capital, playing their original material every week for almost ten years in the run-down but trendy music room of Madison’s Club de Wash.

They have appeared on such programs as Wisconsin Public Radio’s A Prairie Home Companion and NPR’s Weekend Edition. Regular appearances at festivals and folk music clubs all across the country now serve as venues for the songs contained in their twelve recordings and three songbooks.

An optional pre-concert fixed-price dinner will be served at 6 pm. The menu consists of pork loin chop stuffed with Italian sausage, fennel garlic mashed potatoes and cranberry walnut pie for dessert. The price of dinner is $19.95.
