Ricky Skaggs To Hit The Road On New Nine-Date Christmas Tour

Ricky Skaggs is celebrating the season with his new 2023 holiday tour, "Ricky Skaggs & Kentucky Thunder Christmas with Special Guests."

Skaggs and his band Kentucky Thunder will hit the road this month with nine shows Dec. 7-17, marking his first Christmas tour in seven years. The tour will visit Cincinnati, Charleston, Atlanta, Birmingham, Augusta and more, with a show at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium on Dec. 10.

Fans will hear beloved holiday classics "Silent Night," "Deck The Halls" and "Let It Snow" during the shows, along with other special Christmas melodies like the bluegrass tune "Christmas Time's A Comin'" and a rendition of "New Star Shining."

"Everybody loves Christmas," notes Skaggs. "It's the time of year when we think about others and not ourselves. We love singing songs about the greatest birth in history, Jesus Christ. We will be performing some of the old standards we've all grown up with, but we will also have some instrumentals and songs that you might not be familiar with. All in all, it will be a great show for the whole family. Get your tickets now and bring someone with you that might not be able to afford a ticket this time of year. You'll feel great and they will have a fun time too."
