Holiday concert featuring Craig Bickhardt, Halley Neal, Jesse Terry and Sam Robbins
Trinity Presbyterian Church's Spotlight Concert Series presents a special Holiday Concert featuring Craig Bickhardt, Halley Neal, Jesse Terry and Sam Robbins on Saturday December 9th at 7pm. Immerse yourself in their soulful performances, heartwarming originals, and joyful tunes. Let their enchanting melodies and festive spirit captivate you and leave you inspired.
Craig Bickhardt has shared the stage with Bruce Springsteen, Stephen Stills, Judy Collins, Hank Williams Jr., Kathy Mattea, and others. His songs have been recorded by legends such as Johnny Cash, Martina McBride, and Ray Charles. Craig and Thom Schuyler co-wrote and produced the classic Christmas album, Precious Child. Narrated by Guy Clark, it features guest performances by Vince Gill, Alison Krauss, Janis Ian, Michael Johnson, Dan Seals, Ashley Cleveland and a host of others.
Jesse Terry has always loved Christmas music. His Christmas album "Peace" was made even more special by becoming a family affair - Michael Terry, Jesse's father, a longtime professional musician / producer, was brought on as co-producer and handled the vocal arrangements. Jesse is a Grand Prize winner of The John Lennon Songwriting Contest and The CMT/NSAI Song Contest. He plays over 125 shows a year, from Bonnaroo to the Philadelphia Folk Festival, and the 30A Songwriters Festival to AmericanaFest.
Halley Neal and Sam Robbins, each solo singer-songwriters in their own right, are coming together for the first time to release a collaborative Christmas album entitled "You and Me on Christmas Eve." Recorded at Skinny Elephant Recording in Nashville, TN, with Grammy-nominated producer Dylan Alldredge (Amy Speace, Mary Gauthier, Jesse Terry, Ordinary Elephant), the album features five original Christmas songs and 10 classic Holiday covers that dive deep into Robbins' and Neal's backgrounds as Nashville-based singer-songwriters, with touches of jazz born from their days at Berklee College of Music. Two tracks, "You and Me on Christmas Eve" and "Christmas is Coming Soon" can be found in the soundtrack of the New England based AMC+ movie "Christmas on the Cape."
This show promises to be as good as Holiday shows get. All are welcome! The doors will open at 6:30 PM and the concert will begin at 7 PM. The concert is free, but a free-will offering is suggested.
Trinity Presbyterian Church is located on Berwyn Avenue, 1 block south of Route 30 (Lancaster Pike) in Berwyn, PA. Parking is free. The GPS address for the main church parking lot is 51 Waterloo Ave, Berwyn PA, 19312.
