Christmas Jazz Concert!
 

 The John Erickson Trio,

  based in Chicago,  has been delighting audiences since 2008 when it formed to record A FEELING OF CHRISTMAS, a CD collection of jazz infused Christmas carols and hymns.  

  Says Gina Vodegel of All About Jazz.com,  "Familiar songs like Carol of the Bells, Gabriel's Message, and Silent Night all carry the distinctive signature of the Erickson Trio which creates a whole new universe with lush re-harmonization, extended melodies, and subtle force.  They turn traditionals into originals and lift them beyond the holiday season."    

December 5th and 6th
7:30pm
Only $18 per person  


Remembering Old Galena

Coming November 15th, Dinner and Theater...
