Tim Baker & All Hands - Home for Christmas
Tim Baker returns home to Newfoundland this December for a special holiday concert at The Garrick Theatre in Bonavista on December 18th. Backed by his band, All Hands, Baker will perform songs from across his extensive catalogue, with a particular focus on last year’s critically-acclaimed Christmas album Full Rainbow of Light.
Known for his soaring vocals, masterful songwriting, and magnetic live performances, Baker has built a reputation as one of Canada’s leading troubadours. His concerts are joyful, emotional celebrations, filled with both intimate moments and full-band energy. This show will be no different – in Tim’s own words, he has planned a performance that centers around a unifying concept throughout: “the warmth, the nostalgia and the goodness of being home at Christmas. Through many themes and stories and sounds, these songs keep pointing back here, to my people and places and past, in Newfoundland & Labrador - to all the tradition and the change of it, the warmth and the winter, the hardship and the hope of it.”
In addition to tracks from Full Rainbow of Light, Tim Baker & All Hands will of course be playing much-loved Hey Rosetta! Christmas tunes, as well as crowd favourites from Tim’s own ever-deepening solo catalogue. Join us for a festive evening of music this December, as winter takes hold, and the warmth, nostalgia, and hope of the holiday season begins to shine through, in this dynamic performance by one of Newfoundland’s greatest cultural treasures.
Rum Ragged: All The Bells And Wassails
This holiday season, Rum Ragged will release their long-anticipated holiday album, All The Bells and Wassails via LHM Records. True to the band’s reputation, this collection is more than seasonal entertainment—it is a cultural document, grounding the holiday spirit in Newfoundland and Labrador’s centuries-old traditions of song, storytelling, and community.
Rather than adopting the gloss of a conventional Christmas record, Rum Ragged reach back into the seasonal customs of the North Atlantic. The album takes its name from the centuries- old practice of wassailing—an act of gathering, singing, and sharing drink to foster goodwill through the darkest days of the year. The group’s interpretations draw on carols and melodies that travelled across oceans with immigrants to Newfoundland and Labrador, reshaped over generations in outport kitchens and parish halls.
The arrangements are at once meticulous and authentic. Fiddle, bouzouki, and bodhrán echo the instrumentation of festive gatherings past, while the band’s layered harmonies evoke the communal quality of neighbours lifting their voices together. This is music that captures the continuity of cultural memory—seasonal songs as they were carried forward, lived, and celebrated. Yet the album is not bound by nostalgia alone. Rum Ragged infuses each track with vitality, underscoring how tradition remains alive and dynamic. There is reverence, but also the joy of performance: the energy of a band deeply embedded in their heritage, translating it for audiences both at home and abroad.
All The Bells and Wassails is not simply a holiday soundtrack. It is a reflection of how music sustains community, offering light, warmth, and continuity across generations. In sharing these songs, Rum Ragged reminds us that the holidays are as much about cultural inheritance as celebration—voices carried forward, bells ringing through time.
Come gather, sing, and share a drink with us at The Garrick and celebrate the holidays with Rum Ragged!
