Marcia Ball, Carolyn Wonderland, & Shelley King (holiday music)

Elvis warned us about a blue Christmas, but what about a blues one? Texas trifecta Carolyn Wonderland, Marcia Ball, and Shelley King blows through Austin for one of four Home for the Holidays performances across the state. The holiday-themed show features Christmas and cold weather classics, joining each of their interpretations on the genre: from Wonderland’s blistering guitar to Ball’s swampy Louisiana lilt to King’s rootsy gospel vocals. Missing the performance at South Austin’s 04 Center? Each of the women will also take the stage at the Armadillo Christmas Bazaar, Wonderland/King on Dec. 18 and Ball’s Pianorama on Dec. 21. – Abby Johnston
