Lots of folks have hit the point where Christmas is just a big, fat pain they have to get through every December. That might be you or, equally important, it might be people you love and notice their holidays are missing true joy and togetherness.

 For 22 years, the SimpleGifts Christmastide Tour has been changing that dynamic by putting joy and togetherness center stage and in the spotlight of the season. This performance sends folks home feeling like shepherds that just met the angels! You will hear the message of hope and peace, performing modern arrangements of traditional carols and hymns with lush, three-part harmonies and Celtic flair.

Among the exciting news for 2025 is the elated return of longtime “co-pilot” Heather Garborg Moen, whose vocals, violin, and piano “shine like a star you’d follow across the desert!” And speaking of signs in the night sky, we celebrate 2025 as the Long Night Moon Tour. The full moon of December is also known as the Cold Moon and young Fields Arundel (age 8) drew our tour poster.

Billy McLaughlin has been changing people’s idea of what an acoustic guitar can sound like since the 1980’s. He is recognized as an innovative performer and composer who embraces the advantages of acoustic guitar amplification, unorthodox techniques and altered tunings while celebrating a gift for melody. His enormous yet fluid acoustic guitar tone has carried him around the world, to Billboard’s Top-Ten Chart and most recently through a devastating medical disorder called focal dystonia. McLaughlin has had to re-learn the guitar left-handed and is in the early stages of what might be described as ‘one of the great musical-comeback stories of all time.” His story is the subject of an award-winning documentary film called Changing Keys – Billy McLaughlin and the Mysteries of Dystonia.

“…you may swear Billy McLaughlin is two of the greatest acoustic guitarists you’ve ever heard.” — Pittsburgh Post Gazette

“… it’s amazing that such an extensive sound comes from one instrument.”

— Chicago Sun Times
