With the excitement of world class Irish Dancers, internationally renowned Irish musicians and special guest artists Sephira, Celtic Yuletide is a family friendly, high energy holiday treat bringing the best of Ireland to the San Francisco stage. "I'm absolutely thrilled to be performing in the City by the Bay," says Londra, a native of Wexford, Ireland. "It's one of my favorite places to perform and I'm excited to be bringing an Irish Christmas to San Francisco audiences. I can't think of a nicer place to spend this holiday season."Hailed as "one of the greatest Irish singers of our time," Londra will perform traditional, heartwarming Irish carols like "Winter, Fire and Snow" and Gaelic versions of Christmas songs everyone loves, including "Silent Night" ("Oiche Ciuin") and "The Wexford Carol." The evening will also feature Celtic songs of a new Ireland, including Londra's popular classical crossover song "Beyond the Star," which has been recorded and performed by choirs worldwide.
