Joy to the World 2024 – LIVE PERFORMANCES
Thursday, December 12th, 2024
Friday, December 13th, 2023
This year’s concerts takes place at the Culture Center Theater in Charleston, WV and will feature Bob Thompson and his all-star band, along with special guest vocalist Judith Owen, trumpeter James Moore, and New Orleans-based saxophonist Ricardo Pascal.
Doors will open at 7:30 p.m. and the show will begin at 8pm.
“To say that we are excitedly looking forward to this year’s edition of Joy to the World is really an understatement. Our special guest will be the fabulous Judith Owen. Judith is a truly dynamic performer, and a wonderful jazz vocalist who, true to her Welsh heritage, really loves Christmas. She is also a fine songwriter, and plans to include a couple of her original Christmas songs in this show.
Judith is bringing, New Orleans based saxophonist, Ricardo Pascal along with her. Ricardo will be joining our guest trumpet player, James Moore. And as always you will hear Ryan Kennedy on guitar, John Inghram on bass, and Tim Courts on drums. I’m sure glad I’ll be playing piano, otherwise I’d be definitely buying a ticket to this show. Hope to see you there!”
