CFAC 27th Annual Holiday Show
The show will feature folk trio T-Acadie, along with Phil House and Kathy Haley. The highlight of the show will be House playing traditional carols on the historic Hook & Hastings pipe organ.
*****************
T-Acadie will offer selections from their holiday show, "Hidden Gems of the Holiday Season," featuring Cajun/Acadian music, along with wassailing songs and less common carols, etc. The trio will play their usual fiddle, button accordion, and guitar, as well as mountain dulcimer, banjo, cello, hammered dulcimer, and bass.
TAcadie, whose name is Cajun slang for a little Acadia, is a versatile band comfortable playing both concerts and contradances. Their repertoire spans traditional French Canadian
and New England tunes, Cajun and Zydeco, and old-time Southern songs. Band members Pam Weeks, Jim Joseph and Bill Olson, are each accomplished multi-instrumentalists.
