SUMMARY:Cara Brindisi Presents: The 3rd Annual Winter Solstice Concert
DESCRIPTION:“The newest Worcester tradition!” Join Cara Brindisi and friends in the Great Hall to celebrate the longest night of the year\, as we welcome winter & the holidays with warmth\, light\, and music!\n\n\n\nCara Brindisi promises a 3rd year of holiday magic and wonder as she shares her music to celebrate the first night of Winter! Audiences have raved that the concert brings depth and meaning to the holiday season\, many stating that it has become their family’s ‘newest holiday tradition!’ Cara carefully selects and performs songs from all generations to bring joy\, as well as reflection to the season. This year’s concert will highlight poetry\, songwriting\, and story-telling surrounding the Winter Solstice with the help of a few special guests! You don’t want to miss hearing your favorite traditional Christmas songs while also walking into winter with a new sense of spirit and warmth for the days ahead.\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\nCara Brindisi has been a staple to the Worcester County music community for over a decade through her work as a performer\, concert producer\, as well as Music Therapist. Her music has taken her throughout New England and beyond to some of the largest stages as well as some of the most intimate. Most notably\, Cara was a member on Season 22 of NBC’s ‘The Voice!’ where John Legend described her voice as ‘perfect!’ and Blake Shelton stated her performance was ‘hypnotic’. After this experience\, Cara moved to Nashville\, TN for six months to write and record songs for her first full-length album\, ‘I Am Home’. With the album set to release by the end of 2024\, Cara crowdfunded financial support from her fans and reached 253% of her original goal on Kickstarter. From VIP shows\, to merch\, to private songwriting sessions\, Cara has dedicated her last year to her Kickstarter fans\, her New England community\, and to those that support her. When she is not writing\, recording\, and producing concerts\, Cara spends her days bringing Music Therapy to those on end of life care in hospice. Audiences agree that while Cara’s performances are centered around her powerful vocals\, it’s the spirit of the songs and stories that leave the listeners with a sense of peace and a feeling of being understood\, no matter the venue.\n\nLearn more about Cara\, her music\, and her latest projects at carabrindisi.com\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n
