Christmas Time, Rockin' Time at the Coffee House

12/7/2011

It was Christmas Time with Stephanie McIlroy at Coffee Cultures in St. Thomas, Thursday December 4th as she treated the packed coffee house to her new song, It’s Christmas Time plus a selection of her traditional holiday favourites. 

 Between festive tunes, Stephanie reflected on the special meanings the songs have for her. Then she called upon the band to join in, with “Lets rock this coffee shop!” - which they proceeded to do. Stephanie carried the crowd along through performances of her own songs and a number of well-known popular hits. Launching into Queen of Hearts, she enthused, “I love this song,” and the audience clearly loved the McIlroy and band rendition of it and others throughout the evening.

Stephanie’s talented band includes Rick Van Rycheghem (bass guitar & banjo); Jeff Mifflin (bass guitar); Rick Chrysler (drums), all from the Chatham-Kent area.

Photographer Mark Girdauskas was on hand to rock and get some great shots of the evening. See the sampling below, then visit his website to see more.
