The group consists of Meredith Hadaway (harp and concertina), Ben Bennington (guitar and vocals), Rebekah Hock (oboe), and Bob Ortiz (percussion, piano, and vocals). They will be joined by special guests, including singer/songwriter Pam Ortiz, pianist Joe Holt, and vocalist Sue Matthews. Pam Ortiz has composed a new song especially for the program. This year’s concert will feature songs of remembrance, hope, and above all, optimism for the future. Come celebrate the holidays enjoying their lovely and lively traditional songs, dance tunes & carols from the British Isles, Celtic lands and other countries around the world.

This show is made possible with support from the Hedgelawn Foundation in memory of Judy Kohl.
