Lou & Peter Berryman have been amusing, entertaining and edifying their audiences for more than 25 years. Their friendship began in 1963; their (brief) marriage ended in 1974; fortunately their friendship and musical partnership flourish to this day. Peter plays guitar and writes their lyrics--hilarious, quirky yet oddly profound, rich with wordplay and interesting images. Lou plays accordion and writes their jaunty and infectious melodies. Though they remain rooted in their native Wisconsin, they discovered a long time ago that the Midwestern human condition is not particularly different from the human condition elsewhere: their gentle, affectionate observations make us all laugh, cry and care--for ourselves and for each other.
