the Wisconsin Singer/Songwriter Series presents DecemberSongs - four friends singing songs of the season, as old as the ages and as fresh as the newfallen snow.

  Imagine four acclaimed, Grammy-nominated singer/songwriters  criss-crossing the USA throughout December, trading original holiday songs in a "writers-in-the-round" tour before intimate rapt audiences.  Their sets includes holiday originals, some featured on "DecemberSongs" plus a few traditional tunes and a taste of their non-holiday material. On stage, they'll demonstrate that, though it may be December in Wisconsin, this evening will be anything but cold!   

Dan Navarro - from Los Angeles ( of the popular duo Lowen & Navarro) His works have been recorded by Pat Benatar, Jackson Browne, The Bangles, The Temptations and others. His songs of rich insight & deep experience fuel stirring of rare honesty, passion & grace.  

Amy Speace - critically acclaimed Nashville-based Folk/Americana artist with songs recorded by Judy Collins - who called her "one of the best songwriters of the next generation". Amy was named "Songwriter of the Week" by American Songwriter Magazine.
