The Hot Toddies are the perfect swinging and crooning Christmas group for your holiday merriment. Their renditions of holiday classics range from toe tappers that swing to sweet ballads that pull on your heart strings - it’s fun for the whole family, though you may choose to leave the little ones at home in their beds with those sugar plums while you have a swimmingly good Hot Toddy time.
The Hot Toddies are vocalist Michelle Malone (Indigo Girls, Kristian Bush), guitarist Doug Kees (Peter Searcy, Johnny Hyde Quartet). When performing as a trio, they are joined by upright bassist Mark Lehi Jones of Canyonland, DejaBlue Grass, and Left on Blue.
"It’s the holidays, which means Atlanta’s favorite blues/roots rocker Michelle Malone shifts to her Hot Toddies Holiday trio seasonal guise, something she, and her audience, clearly enjoy. You don't want to miss this show of rearranged, generally retro-rocking Christmas oldies, favorites and overall upbeat musical cheer." — Hal Horowitz
“Michelle Malone and the Hot Toddies are Christmas nostalgia re-imagined and all wrapped up in a warm, jazzy blanket.”
