Tickets and tour info:

-----------------------

Merry Christmas, friends!!! Thank you for another wonderful year of music.

This song is so jazzy we couldn't resist asking dad to join us on the saxophone and he was a blast to have on stage again on tour to surprise people with for the encore. The outro is fun because our grandma, Jeannine, is 92 and Macy is 1! Special times for our family for sure :)

We will be back with our Branson show on March 18 - tickets are available on our website . Also sign up to our email list to hear about future tours!

►LYRICS - The Christmas Song
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas to you
