We wrapped up another run of Charlie Brown Christmas shows at @dazzle_denver with hearts full. 🤍
11 days, 24 shows, 5 guest vocalists, thousands of audience members, and so many moments of connection, trust, and humor onstage with my lifelong friends and trio mates, bassist Patrick McDevitt and drummer Alejandro Castaño.
I said this to every audience and I mean it: it’s an honor to share these beloved Guaraldi songs, introduce my new Christmas songs, and to have the chance to host joy and togetherness this time of year. If you missed us this year, we’d love to have you join us in 2026 for our 13th annual residency.
Thanks to the entire team at Dazzle for working so hard to make this Denver holiday tradition so special. Photos taken by Seth Beamer @sethbeamerproductions

Last night was a GREAT concert with my brothers @pmcdevittmusic and @alejandrobot at The Aspen Lodge!
The three of us have been playing music together for nearly 20 years and each time we play it feels like flying to me. We all took a bunch of musical risks last night in particular and every time were fully supported and heard by one another ✨✨✨
