A Jazz Christmas Celebration Featuring Guitarist Royce Campbell & Friends

December 17, 2011


A RARE LOCAL APPEARANCE!

Don’t miss Shenandoah Valley’s own Royce Campbell, performing for one night only in a magical event of holiday cheer and fun for the entire family!

Music of the Christmas season is never more beautiful than when played by award winning guitarist Royce Campbell. Nineteen years as Henry Mancini’s guitarist, plus numerous tours with singers Mel Tormé, Cleo Laine, Perry Como, and Marvin Gaye, have given Campbell an appreciation for the deep meaning that these songs convey year after year.

With his warm and sincere spirit, Campbell combines mainstream jazz with the Christmas tradition, breathing new life into treasured seasonal favorites like Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow, White Christmas, O Christmas Tree, I’ll Be Home for Christmas, Winter Wonderland, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, Toyland, Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, Jingle Bells, Silent Night, Away in a Manger, and many more!

Royce Campbell has released more than 30 CDs as leader or co-leader among various sideman projects. Eleven of these CDs have made it onto the US national jazz radio charts consecutively. Four of his CDs have reached the top ten. Campbell’s soloing is documented among other jazz guitarists of the era, in Mel Bay’s Anthology of Jazz Guitar Solos: Featuring Solos by the World’s Finest Jazz Guitarists. In November 2010, Royce Campbell was inducted into the Indianapolis Jazz Foundation Hall of Fame.
