Cara Dillon - Upon A Winter's Night: A Christmas Tradition Rooted in Wonder and Reverence
Cara Dillon, whose ethereal voice has long been heralded as one of the finest to emerge from Ireland's rich folk tradition, is set to embark on her much-loved Christmas tour, Upon A Winter's Night. Now a cherished annual event, the show has become a seasonal staple for
audiences across the UK and Ireland, Cara and her band will once again capture the mystery of Christmas with a collection of songs - both ancient and modern - providing a welcome reminder that the festive season can be about more than just commercialism.
A far cry from Jingle Bells and Santa Baby, Cara will be joined by her exceptional band who weave Celtic rhythms alongside reverent and ancient carols, offering a musical experience that feels intimate, transcendent and deeply reverent. Her voice, carrying a purity that
seems to hold the darkness at bay, reminds audiences that Christmas can still be a time of quiet reflection and profound beauty.
For Dillon, Christmas is more than a holiday-it's a passion. There is another side to Christmas...far away from Bing crooning and Noddy screaming: a space where the story of Jesus' birth is retold with genuine wonder and celebrated with the dignity, passion and beauty it deserves. Instead, Dillon invites listeners to a place where ancient traditions are honoured, and the true meaning of the season shines through in every note.
