DESCRIPTION:
Every Christmas Eve we play a free concert in Del Mar at the outdoor amphitheater next to the L’Auberge Del Mar Hotel. It’s a long lasting tradition of ours to present this show which is a mix of great music, super cool friends, family, and new acquaintances. Together we rally in the lofty life of California Christmas with the temp barreling down to an edgy 72 degrees in the shade. Again, this year was just like that, super warm and inviting!

The band lineup for the concert was:
Leonard Patton, Lizzi Trumbore, Coral MacFarland-Thuet, Kevyn Lettau, Nina Francis, Tripp Sprague, Gunnar Biggs, Fred Benedetti, Duncan Moore, Riley Fleck, John Leftwich, Kate Sprague, Julia and Regina Benedetti, Johnny Minchin, and me.

This video captures the highlights from the first set. The 2nd set highlights are in another posted video.

The sampling of songs are:
Ankles
Dream Walkin’
Swablr
The Christmas Song
Trouble in Paradise
Honeysuckle Rose
God Bless the Child
