Catherine Maclellan performing Christmas shows

Juno Award-winning singer-songwriter Catherine Maclellan is bringing her Christmas show to P.E.I.

She will play in Charlottetown at the Trailside Music Hall on Dec. 4 and at La Village Acadien in Abramvillage on Dec. 17.

Maclellan will be joined on stage by her long-time guitarist Nick Gauthier, sharing beloved classics, self-penned holiday songs and some rare gems.

Maclellan earned the respect of her musical peers in 2004 when she released her first solo album, Dark Dream Midnight.

She said she has always felt more at home while performing and is eager to feel a connection with the audience.

“I’ve always loved the music of Christmas and the fun times singing in kitchens with friends and family over a glass of eggnog,” said Maclellan.

“That is the energy I’ll be bringing with me, hoping that people sing along and catch some of that holiday spirit.”

Last year, Maclellan released her first Christmas album, a self-engineered and self-produced EP, which included the original single Calling You Home (for the Holidays).

The album also featured three beloved classics, In the Bleak Midwinters, Blue Christmas and Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.
