How to Book
Ken Lonnquist began writing songs at seven, took up the guitar at twelve,
and has been performing professionally since his college days at
UW-Madison.
He won a national audition and traveled widely as “Minstrel for
the Environment,” writing and performing for K-12 students about
environmental concerns. A series of acclaimed recordings for adults and
children followed.
Recognition from Parents Choice, American Library Association,
Booklist, Children’s Music Web, Parents Guide To Children’s
Media and others solidified his reputation as a family writer and entertainer.
Lonnquist’s love for theater found an outlet as composer for Children’s
Theater of Madison, where 15 productions of his full-scale musicals have
been presented at the Madison Civic Center.
His charm and energy as a
live performer remain the heart of his work.
