Sometimes it hits you while flipping through an old photo album. Other times it’s the smell of something baking in the oven or the moment you hang an ornament on the tree. Whatever the trigger, eventually you find yourself saying, “OK, now it feels like Christmas.”
Ginger Commodore and friends bring you a fresh take on holiday music with a mix of Christmas classics and originals, all reimagined with R&amp;B, soul, funk and gospel flair. Enjoy favorites like “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas,” “My Favorite Things,” “This Christmas,” “Mary Did You Know,” “Let It Snow” and more, along with original songs filled with smooth grooves, jazz riffs and rich harmonies. It’s Christmas with a whole lot of soul!
Ginger Commodore is a Midwest music scene veteran – performing as a long-time member of the Grammy Award-winning Sounds of Blackness and touring across the United States. She was last on Chanhassen Dinner Theatres’ Main Stage starring as Motormouth Maybelle in 2012’s Hairspray and the Concert Series in Night of Wonder – The Music of Stevie Wonder and Hot Buttered Classic Soul, among others.
