COYLE — Jasper Lepak, a folk-Americana songstress who has played for audiences from the Midwest to South Africa, is the next performer in the “Concerts in the Woods” series at the Laurel B. Johnson Community Center, 923 Hazel Point Road.
This Saturday night, Lepak (pronounced “LEE-pack”) will offer her particular brand of musical storytelling in a 7:30 p.m. concert. Listeners of all ages are welcome, and admission is by donation.
“Her performances pull your heart onto your sleeve and make you want to keep it there,” according to the invitation from Norm Johnson, promoter of the Coyle concert series.
Since 2004, Lepak has been sharing her songs throughout the Midwest, but from 2009 to 2011 she lived in Durban, South Africa. She then recorded her sixth CD, “Forgiving Wind,” a record the Duluth News Tribune likened to “a brisk west wind rippling over the savannahs.”
