Nellie McKay Presents A HOLIDAY-ISH CONCERT this December

Nellie McKay: A Holiday-ish Concert is a benefit for the Church of St. Paul and St. Andrew. Proceeds raised from this benefit concert will go toward the preservation of SPSA's historic, landmarked building. Ms. McKay, with the able assistance of Alexi David on bass and Kenneth Salters on drums, will be performing seasonal songs as well as her always eclectic repertoire on Thursday, December 8 at 7:30pm. There will be antlers.

Nellie has released six critically acclaimed albums, from her stunning debut Get Away from Me to her latest album of 1960's covers, My Weekly Reader, both of which were co-produced by famed Beatles engineer Geoff Emerick. She also co-created and starred in the award-winning off-Broadway hit Old Hats, and her musical biography A GIRL NAMED BILL - The Life and Times of Billy Tipton, which made The New York Times list of Best Concerts of 2014, will be returning to 54 Below in January 2017.

A recipient of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals Humanitarian Award in recognition of her dedication to animal rights, Nellie is a vocal advocate for feminism, civil rights and other deeply felt progressive ideals.

The Church of St. Paul and St. Andrew is located at 263 W. 86th Street, New York, New York.

St. Paul and St. Andrew UMC is a diverse, progressive, welcoming and growing congregation rooted in Manhattan's Upper West Side. The Church is known for its work in racial, economic, and environmental justice, interfaith action, radical hospitality and inclusiveness. SPSA has emerged as a center for community action and engagement, housing an emergency food pantry, homeless shelter, after school tutoring program and meals on wheels deliveries for the elderly. SPSA also partners with congregations of other denominations and faiths, theater and arts groups and social justice advocacy groups to build a more just and peaceful world.

St. Paul and St. Andrew seeks to build a community of radical welcome that follows Jesus into the streets of the city to increase the amount of love and justice in the world. SPSA seeks to be a catalyst for love-inspired action and social justice; to nurture and inspire Jesus' followers through dynamic worship and relationship-building to transform ourselves and the world; to teach and live progressive Christian values (including racial and gender equity, interfaith partnership, and LGBTQI affirmation) in service of the empowerment of the last, the lost, and the least; and to raise up future generations by fostering a congregation of all ages that fosters young leaders and at-risk communities.
