Prefer a rockabilly sound? JD McPherson has you covered.

Looking for a fix of Irish music? Head out to see Fialla or the Drowsy Lads. Or you can opt for a cappella groups either sweet or sassy with Pentatonix or Straight No Chaser. You can also pick your instrument this holiday season: piano by Jim Brickman, saxophone by Dave Koz or violin with Lindsey Stirling. Those who like a like a little sensory overload with their holidays can opt for arena-set Trans-Siberian Orchestra shows, while those who enjoy a more peaceful version of the season can head to an acoustic concert by Over the Rhine. The next month's packed concert schedule offers something for everyone.

Holiday music is back in full force this year, refreshed with new songs created during last year's recess.
