Winterdance Celtic Christmas Celebration

Winterdance returns to DCC on Friday, November 29 (Black Friday). End your day of shopping and tree lighting with a lively and beautiful Celtic Christmas concert to kick off the holiday season! Refreshments will be available at intermission, with proceeds benefiting the Bay Area Crisis Nursery.

Molly's Revenge and special guests the Rosemary Turco Irish Dancers will present an evening of music and dance associated with the festive season. The performance will include Christmas music both old and new, played with a Celtic twist, as well as selections from the band's new album.

The California-based group has toured internationally since 2000 as a four and five-piece acoustic band, releasing eleven CDs and working with producers John Doyle and Aaron Jones to release their previous two albums. Earlier this year, Molly's Revenge released of an all-instrumental collection titled Trio, recorded at a remote windswept retreat in the redwoods of the Mendocino coast. Trio is a compelling collection of fierce and beautiful tunes encompassing Scottish pipe sets, driving Irish reels, jigs, polkas, slides, and hornpipes, French Canadian fiddle tunes, and even a set of American oldtime melodies featuring Highland pipes.

Molly's Revenge, whose lineup includes bagpipes, fiddle, whistle, guitar, mandola, and bodhran, have toured extensively in the USA as well as Australia, China and Scotland. The band is known for its unique and infectious on-stage enthusiasm. Their arrangements of traditional jigs and reels bring these dance tunes up to date with a driving, hard-edged accent that always leaves audiences shouting for more.

Special guests the Rosemary Turco Irish Dancers bring a percussive, joyful, and colorful exuberance to the stage. This 8th Annual Celtic Christmas Celebration will capture the traditional spirit of the season and warm the hearts of all.
