16TH ANNUAL CHARLIE BROWN JAZZ CHRISTMAS IN MOBILE

The 16th annual Charlie Brown Jazz Christmas concert returns Saturday, Dec. 6, at 7 p.m. to the Saenger Theatre, continuing a beloved holiday tradition that brings families and music lovers together for an evening of joy and giving. This year’s performance once again features The Joe Cool Trio — John Milham on drums, Chris Spies on piano and Chris Severin on bass — performing Vince Guaraldi’s iconic score from "A Charlie Brown Christmas." Joining the trio for this year’s special event is acclaimed songwriter and performer Grayson Capps. Known for his soulful Southern sound and raw, poetic storytelling, Capps brings a new energy to the show while honoring the spirit of the season. Also appearing onstage will be Corky Hughes, a celebrated guitarist and familiar name to Gulf Coast audiences.

Tickets range from $27 to $56. A portion of proceeds from the Mobile performance will benefit the Child Advocacy Center of Mobile, which supports children and non-offending family members through counseling, advocacy and education in the aftermath of abuse.
