Stephen Lee Rich in Concert
Sunday, February 16, 2020 / 3pm
Suggested Donation: $15

Stephen Lee Rich is a Madison singer/songwriter, yodeler, comedian, and harmless crazy person who has been performing for over 40 years and is still at it! Before Stephen Lee Rich came to Madison, he spent a couple of decades on the Chicago folk scene. He puts heart and humor into his colorful array of folk, old-time pop and novelty songs. Stephen doesn't take himself too seriously – he plays parodies of old folk chestnuts, doo-wop, and even a couple of kazoo solos. Stephen is a model of topical and thought-provoking songwriting that's thoroughly entertaining. http://www.stephenleerich.com/
