Serious and comical love songs, fun trivia questions, and delicious home-made sweets will highlight the 16th annual Valentines concert by Bill Cohen and friends from 7:00 to 9 pm on Saturday February 7, 2026.
With guitar and piano, Bill will sing favorites from the 1940’s through the 1990’s, made famous by John Denver, the Everly Brothers, Sam Cooke, James Taylor, Sting, Connie Francis, Johnny Mathis, 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 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 a new venue, Northwest United Methodist Church, 5200 Riverside Drive. There is a $15 per person donations are suggested at the door. Proceeds help put on this June’s Central Ohio Folk Festival.
Stick around after for home-made cookies and goodies after the show while you visit with the musicians.
