Forget the Nutcracker and Handel's Messiah. For a real taste of seasonal cheer, nothing says Joy to the World like Bill Kirchen singing Daddy's Drinkin' Up Our Christmas. Featured is a sleigh-full of rarely heard holiday numbers from the blues, rock 'n' roll and honky tonk bags: Silent Surfin' Night, Truckin' Trees for Christmas, Santa Looked A Lot Like Daddy and many more. But be ye not afraid, there'll be so much more than holiday songs of questionable taste; you can count on a truckload of diesel-billy classics to take the edge off the holiday fuss.
Join us for a holiday show that takes a decidedly different route, in the intimate setting of the Lehigh Valley’s Original Live Music Listening Room.
