Last year marked 30 years since Kathy Mattea (“Eighteen Wheels and a Dozen Roses”) released her first Christmas album Good News, a heavily acoustic, gospel-esque collection that features a more religious batch of Christmas songs, including an English version of “Christ Child’s Lullaby” (said to be originally penned in Gaelic).

The 65-year-old country singer will center this show—her first in town since two springs ago—around a healthy selection of tracks from the godliest of ‘90s holiday albums, along with a pinch of non-Christmasey songs to go.

Tickets to see Kathy Mattea play Bilheimer Capitol Theatre in Clearwater on Saturday, Dec. 14 are still available and start at $29.
