Christmas Tours

Is it too soon to talk about Christmas? Well, grocery stores are selling candy canes, the Halloween costume shops are becoming Christmas shops, and television and radio are already over-commercializing the heck out of it, so I guess not! If you’re looking for a unique and valuable way to enjoy some Christmas festivities this year, here are a couple tours you won’t want to miss...

Ten Out of Tenn Christmas Tour

There’s been a lot of talk about the Ten Out of Tenn (TOT) community of artists on this site lately, and with good reason. It’s ten great artists making a lot of great music on-stage together. And, in this case, it’s a lot of great Christmas music. The TOT Christmas tour kicks off on November 27 in Baton Rouge, LA, and features a host of amazing artists including Erin McCarley, Andy Davis, Katie Herzig, K.S. Rhoads, Tyler James, Matthew Perryman Jones, Butterfly Boucher, Jeremy Lister, Andrew Belle, and TOT founder, Trent Dabbs. And, for all our California readers, they’re coming to Los Angeles! Visit 10OutofTenn.com for all the tour dates and, if you can’t catch the tour, you can at least pick up the excellent Ten Out of Tenn Christmas Album featuring many of the same artists!


Behold The Lamb of God Tour

Ten years ago, singer/songwriter Andrew Peterson released a Christmas album called, “Behold the Lamb of God – The true tall tale of the coming of Christ”, and he leads an annual tour of the same name featuring so many of my songwriting and musician heroes, I don’t even know where to begin. Artists that have been involved include Andrew Osenga, Derek Webb, Sandra McCracken, Jill Phillips, Randall Goodgame, Ben Shive, Andy Gullahorn, Phil Keaggy, Pierce Pettis, and the list just goes on. It’s a truly unique Christmas experience. The 2009 tour kicks off on December 3 in Elmhurst, IL, and the album as well as a live DVD version of the tour are available now. Also, Andrew Peterson is releasing a special 10th Anniversay Edition of the Behold The Lamb album which includes a remastered version as well as a second disc featuring a live performance. Visit Andrew-Peterson.com or RabbitRoom.com for all the tour dates and to order the albums or DVD.

Merry Christmas!
