Stuart is going to have a White Christmas, or at least A Peter White Christmas as the guitarist, singer and songwriter comes to town with several of his closest friends. This year, Peter White will bring along Mindi Abair and Vincent Ingala to put their own special take on the music of the season. It’s a rockin’ good time and the very best way to get the holiday season underway. For White, who has been coming to The Lyric for years, the Christmas show is personal. “When I was a kid, Christmas was a big part of my life,” he said, “My father taught me the recorder and we played Christmas music he arranged going door-to-door.”

Saxophonist and two-time Grammy nominee Mindi Abair is a self-described “Christmas dork.” She has been a frequent visitor to Stuart, having performed several times in “A Peter White Christmas.” “Growing up, my family would get together for Christmas every year,” she said. “My mother would cook stuffing and rhubarb pie and we’d all play and sing together. My grandmother gave me great advice early on: ‘If you play the piano, you can be the life of the party.’ She was an opera singer and would sit and play piano and Christmas songs. My father would take over and play more rock/blues/jazz versions of Christmas songs and we’d all sing. Of course, I’d pull out my sax and play along with my father. What an amazing way to grow up, with music surrounding me and weaving into my life so seamlessly from a young age.”
