The Venue Bar and Grill is in the Christmas spirit with a number of bands to celebrate the holiday season.

"The songs I write, and that I perform by others, typically revolve around either themes of loss and redemption – or have what I hope is wry wit and clever wordplay. Yes, sometimes I take a slanted view of society."

“When people think about Christmas and Winter Holidays, music is always one of the things we associate with this time of year. Music has a direct connection to our oldest, fondest memories. This is probably one of the reasons why audiences love to come out and hear us at this time of year."

Local performer Martin Russell and some of his musical friends are getting into the holiday spirit while preparing for his upcoming Christmas Concert on Dec. 7 at St. Andrew's Church.
