Arlandria music venue The Birchmere has a jam-packed schedule for the holiday season, with a few notable big names and old favorites returning.
Coming up later this week is musician Chris Isaak, best known for his 1989 single Wicked Game.
Classic 70s rock band America is coming to the Birchmere next month, though unfortunately the show is already sold out.
Birchmere frequent guest KT Tunstall — whose hits like Black Horse and the Cherry Tree were everywhere around 2006 — is also making a return in December. With a completely different vibe: surrealist filmmaker John Waters is also returning to the Birchmere for his yearly Christmas show.
There are also some fun tribute concerts planned, from a show about rock band Genesis to a tribute to Hank Williams late next month.
