This blazingly energetic trio takes on Vince Guaraldi‘s holiday classic, A Charlie Brown Christmas. Follow the story of these musicians who are told they must go on a fantastical adventure. They must leave in the middle of the night to bring holiday spirit to the world. They play the timeless music of Vince Guaraldi, including “Christmas Time Is Here“ and “Linus and Lucy.”With energy and chops to burn, The Travis Anderson Trio bring fresh interpretations to standards and more – from Chopin to Mario Bros – they swing like there’s no tomorrow while saluting the great trios of yesterday.
Travis Anderson has been delighting audiences with his dazzling piano technique and inventive arrangements since 2003. He has taken his unique piano style all over the metro area and beyond.
Steve Pikal is one of the most in-demand bassists in the region. Adept at many genres, his joyous stage presence and buoyant playing add an exciting element to every show.
Versatile, dynamic, and hard-swinging, Nathan Norman is a first-call drummer in the Twin Cities. He has collaborated with many of the area’s finest artists, including Bruce Henry, Debbie Duncan, Charmin Michelle, and more.
A Charlie Brown Christmas is the Emmy and Peabody award-winning story written by St. Paul’s own Charles M. Schulz. This classic has warmed the hearts of millions of fans since it first aired on television nearly sixty years ago. The Christmas special marked the first time Schulz’s classic characters made the jump from the newspaper page to animation. The soundtrack being provided by a jazz trio rather than full orchestra, originally a budget-conscious decision, proved to be an inspired choice. Guaraldi’s songs are as important to the show’s enduring success as the characters themselves.
