As Thanksgiving approaches, we know that the holiday season is nearly here, so it’s time to start marking your calendars with December concerts and gatherings.

The Gloucester Meetinghouse Foundation is pleased to present the Dashing Rock Trio in a Celtic Christmas Concert with timeless melodies reimagined, on Saturday December 6^th at 7:30pm in the Gloucester Unitarian Universalist Church, at the corner of Middle and Church Streets.

Based on the isle of Nahant in Boston Harbor, Dashing Rock Trio explores the music of the Celtic nations and beyond with varied instrumentation, including fiddle, nyckelharpa, flute, whistle, guitar, accordion, Scottish smallpipes and voice.

Elizabeth Ketudat, Dave Cabral, and Sarah MacConduibh have performed together for decades in multiple ensembles. They bring their deep friendship and experience to create the ensemble’s unique sound, a blend of tradition and fresh interpretation.

Dashing Rock Trio performs at festivals, concerts, and private events. Whether on a grand stage or a cozy local venue, they bring vibrant energy and musicianship to every performance.  We are delighted to present them to the community in the fine acoustics of our historic 1806 Meetinghouse.

Tickets are available at the door and online (recommended) with more information on our website.  General admission is $30, students $10, under age 12 free.

Parking is available on the Green, entered between the granite pillars at 50 Middle Street, and around the Historic District.  The side entrance at 10 Church Street offers elevator access.
