Known for its classic arrangements of “Silent Night,” “Decks the Halls” and “Angels We Have Heard On High,” the band performs a musical fusion of acoustic, analog, digital and electronic sounds. Mannheim Steamroller’s sound has been described as “ 18th century classical rock.” “The band will play songs from the new CD and take plenty of time to showcase many favorites from our previous Christmas albums,” said Mannheim Steamroller founder and composer Chip Davis. “The music, along with our state-of-the-art multimedia production, is meant to make this an experience for the whole family.’' The latest Mannheim Steamroller holiday albums, “Christmas Story” and “Christmasville,” mark the band’s eighth and ninth Christmas titles.
