As winter crests and the mercury falls, everyone from your taxi driver to the music supervisor at the mall starts running timeless hits like "Jingle Bells" and "Silent Night." But for their Christmas Caravan show and album (which hit Billboard’s World Music Charts and the New York Times Hits List), Canada’s global groove wizards and 3x JUNO Award nominees Sultans of String celebrate the holiday spirit with an adventurous musical trip around the world, featuring exuberant originals, world-music inspired classics, and seasonal favourites to warm your heart on a cold winter’s night. Joining the BILLBOARD-charting Christmas Caravan is special guest vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Ken Whiteley, Rebecca Campbell, Aviva Chernick, Nyckelharpa player Saskia Tomkins, Latin Vocalist Amanda Martinez, and more! From fiery fiddle tunes to a Caribbean sleigh ride, this surprising and delightful holiday fiesta heats up when Sultans of String bring their signature sound to well known gems such as Little Drummer Boy, Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring, a Turkish twist on Greensleeves, Silent Night, as well as a django-jazz inspired Django Christmas, and a Rumba-Flamenca fuelled Jingle Bells.
