Description
PEI's celebrated singer songwriter Lennie Gallant is bringing his ever-popular festive show “The Innkeeper’s Christmas 2024” to set the right tone for our holiday season!
Lennie’s Christmas album of 11 original songs received much praise and critical acclaim. Canadian music reviewer/author Bob Mersereau said, “I always make a point of listening to many new Christmas albums each year, and this is one of the best I’ve heard in years, and certainly one of the premiere sets of new tunes in a long time…I hope he’s learning every one of these songs for the show!” He definitely has! The title song “Christmas Day on Planet Earth” and its accompanying video is becoming a holiday standard sung not only by Gallant, but many choirs as well.
Lennie has performed his Innkeeper’s Christmas show for several years now to sold out crowds. Every year the songwriter updates and adds new songs, stories and arrangements to his extremely popular holiday offering keeping it fresh and exciting, while maintaining the spirit of a holiday celebration with a difference. This multimedia version, along with his band consisting of partner Acadian star Patricia Richard, the wonderful New Brunswick violinist Marie Andrée Gaudet and 22-year-old piano marvel Julien Robichaud promises to be the best one yet. You can expect an evening full of original Christmas songs, (along with some traditional ones), a lot of laughs, great tales, and occasional surprises that will definitely put you in a Yuletide state of mind. Come join us for a Christmas concert unlike any you have experienced before!
