Kirkland Performance Center Announces Holiday Lineup
There is something for every member of the family this holiday season at KPC: for the classic-rock-fan dad, the music-and-dance loving mom or the wacky concoction-making kid. And grandparents can reminisce with the youngsters when Jim French records his latest live radio drama on November 21st. New to the KPC holiday line-up is the addition of Timothy B. Schmit's solo concert. Well-known as bass player and singer with the Eagles, Timothy B. Schmit is no stranger to the massive arena concert. But on December 12, the Kirkland audience is in for a rare treat as Schmit plays an intimate show at KPC for the first time.

The funny and upbeat Good Lovelies will enliven the holidays with their cheerful folksy renditions of quirky and classic Christmas tunes. Caroline Brooks, Kerri Ough and Sue Passmore, are best friends and refugees from solo careers who describe themselves as having folk-roots with a dash of western swing and a pinch of sass. The Toronto-based trio relies on unerring three-part vocal harmonies, clever songs, constant instrument swapping and witty on-stage banter that create a convulsively funny repartee.
Well-known as the bass player and singer with the Eagles, Timothy B. Schmit brings his own band to KPC for an evening of classic rock. Timothy joined the Eagles in 1977 and, alongside Glenn Frey, Don Henley and Joe Walsh soon brought a new identity to the supergroup singing lead on "I Can't Tell You Why" and "Love Will Keep Us Alive." From his start with Poco, Schmit has performed with Firefall, Steely Dan, Toto, Boz Scaggs, Bob Seger, Crosby Stills and Nash, Roy Orbison, Jimmy Buffett and Ringo Star. In this concert Schmit will feature hits from the Eagles plus songs from Expando, his first solo album in eight years. KPC's Old-Time Holiday Show.
