Music at the lighthouses July 11 and July 12

Sable Point Lighthouse Keepers Association will feature Skooine & Kly for two performances at local lighthouses. Skoonie and Kly feature two veteran folk guitarists with a unique blend of soft rock, blues, folk and hauntingly beautiful ballads that will touch your heart.

The duo will perform on Wednesday, July 11 at 7 p.m. at Little Sable Point Lighthouse and at Big Sable Point Lighthouse on Thursday, July 12 from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m.

Bus transportation will be provided to Big Sable Lighthouse at a cost of $5 per adult and $2 per child. The bus will operate from the main Ludington State Park parking lot to the lighthouse from noon to 5 p.m.
The group is led by guitarist Jim Novak, and joined by fellow band mate Paul Cerny. Originally from the Chicago area, Jim first got into music playing in the Second City’s Club and coffee house scene. With his childhood friend Paul Cerny they started a singing group called the Newport’s. Their popularity led to a series of college concerts and a regular job as the opening act for the Stars of the WGN Barn Dance.
Jim is a Vietnam veteran. When he returned from service, he and Paul reunited for several years sharing their music on the coffee house circuit on Chicago’s Northside. In 2008 Jim released his first “Be Still” to great reviews as did his second release in 2011, “Meetin’ Tonight.
Paul now resides in Georgia and Jim in Grand Haven, Mi.  

The concerts are free.
