Grammy Award winner Kathy Mattea brings her deep acoustic music roots to an original and traditional Christmas holiday music program. Led by her warm and soulful vocals and deft arrangements, Kathy’s stellar band, assembled for this tour with some of Nashville’s finest musicians, brings a fresh take on a wide range of songs of the season: from well loved traditional tunes to selections from 1993’s Grammy winning Good News album and 2003’s acclaimed Joy for Christmas Day, to her breakthrough recording of the iconic “Mary, Did You Know?”.

About Kathy Mattea

Hailed by The Washington Post as “one of Nashville’s finest song interpreters,” Kathy Mattea has enjoyed much success and acclaim during her 40-year career in Country, Bluegrass and Folk music, including 2 Grammy wins, 4 CMA Awards, 4 #1 country singles, and five gold albums (plus a platinum Greatest Hits collection). Her latest album is Pretty Bird, produced by her old friend, roots music wizard Tim O’Brien. The wide-ranging collection of songs chronicles a period of rededication to singing, digging back in with a vocal coach and emerging with a poignant and eclectic CD. In addition to creating and recording music and performing live on tour, Kathy is increasingly involved with public broadcasting, consulting and contributing on screen in Ken Burns’ 2019 documentary for PBS Country Music, and recently replacing founder Larry Groce as the host of the long-running NPR show Mountain Stage.
