FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 
April 23, 2010


Garrison Keillor's A Prairie Home Companion "Summer Love" Tour
Keillor and company to do concerts in 25 cities coast to coast

This concert tour on the everlasting theme of romantic love will be jam-packed with tender duets and ballads, poetry (Poe, Shakespeare, Anonymous), and stories of passion and marriage — not to mention Mr. Keillor’s intermission walk through the audience for the sing-along of “Unchained Melody” and “Can’t Help Falling in Love with You.” An entertaining date night for all ages! While these are not APHC broadcast shows, they will include many favorite Prairie Home Companion elements — Guy Noir, Dusty and Lefty, and the News from Lake Wobegon. Nickel Creek's Sara Watkins will be on hand, as will sound-effects man Fred Newman and the Guy's All-Star Shoe Band.
