Warren Haynes’ highly anticipated annual Christmas Jam is returning to Asheville, North Carolina’s U.S. Cellular Center this week, marking the all-star collaborative holiday party’s 30th anniversary. Warren Haynes’ Christmas Jam will span two nights from December 7th to December 8th, with both nights benefitting the Asheville Area Habitat for Humanity.
Luckily, for fans unable to attend the event, Christmas Jam has announced they will be webcasting both nights via nugs.tv. Pre-orders for the video webcast are available now for either single nights in standard or HD, as well as discounted two-night webcast packages.
This year’s Christmas Jam will feature performances from Dark Side of The Mule, Grace Potter, Jamey Johnson, Marco Benevento, Mike Gordon (Phish), Dave Grohl and friends play PLAY, Eric Church, Gov’t Mule, Jim James (My Morning Jacket), Joe Bonamassa, and many more.
Haynes is also hosting his annual Christmas Pre-Jam at Asheville’s Orange Peel on Thursday, December 6th, which will be broadcast live via WNCW. Haynes always leaves the kickoff party’s lineup as a surprise, but the event generally features artists that are also performing throughout the weekend’s festivities.
WNCW Music Director Martin Anderson notes,
What began as a live Studio B session and a great opportunity for various artists to meet and jam with each other for the first time, has now become a tradition with a vibe all its own, said Anderson. WNCW is honored to be able to broadcast it LIVE for you, in its entirety, with cool holiday tunes during set breaks to help get you into the Christmas spirit, ‘NCW-style.
