Live from Tolan Square with DuPont Phillips

Michigan favorites Chris DuPont and Kylee Phillips, known for their blend of folk/pop with tight vocal harmonies, met over a decade ago during a radio appearance for Ann Arbor’s 107.1 and became instant fans of one another. In the summer of 2021, after countless path crossings, Chris and Kylee finally learned each other’s material and discovered an incredible vocal blend and stage synergy.
Since then, the duo has performed at treasured venues like The Ark (Ann Arbor, MI) and Evanston Space (Chicago, IL), shared stages with artists like May Erlewine, Vienna Teng and Steve Poltz and appeared at many events around the midwest including the Ann Arbor Summer Festival (main stage 2024), Blissfest (2025) and Folk Alliance Regional Midwest (official showcase artist 2024).
They released “Big Sky Sessions” - their first EP as a duo - in the spring of 2024 with another EP set for release in late 2026.
The City of Milan and Milan Parks and Recreation are pleased to produce the Hungry Howie's Live from Tolan Square Summer Concert Series. Now, in its sixth year, the series features local and regional artists in a variety of genres. The event is free and occurs most Fridays and every third Thursday in June - September.
Bring your own lawn chair or snag a seat at one of the tables in Tolan Square. Grab to-go meal from a downtown eatery and a MOSA beverage from Pepper's, Fender's, The Owl or the American Legion and enjoy the sounds of summer.
