Taking inspiration from televised holiday specials of yore with music legends 
like Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra, the concert, hosted at Bing Crosby's former 
estate, features an incredible line-up of musicians and Broadway artists.

"As we approach the holidays, we wanted to offer people some respite from the 
past few months and raise money for artists who have been so profoundly 
impacted by the pandemic," said Suzanne Waldowski Roche, Executive Director of 
JATB. "Our vision for this event is to provide a platform for incredible 
artists to bring a much needed modicum of joy to our audience, as well as some 
light-hearted festivity to the season."

Emmy Award winner Frank DeLella is the event co-host. Other guests include 
Kathryn Crosby and a range of award-winning vocalists, musicians and dancers 
from around the world.
