The holidays are a mixed bag and so is the Bittersweet Christmas
Band! From Thanksgiving through December 25th, traditional artists Cooper, Nelson & Early join forces with songwriter
and "wise" woman Susan Urban for a show that presents every possible perspective on the holiday season from the reverent to
the ridiculous. Two to four-part harmonies and masterful instrumentation on guitar, hand drum and other percussion instruments,
dulcimer and pennywhistle make the Bittersweet Christmas Band an act not to be missed!
