A Charlie Brown Christmas At The Earl

A Charlie Brown Christmas premiered on CBS on Dec. 9, 1965.  The soundtrack to that special, composed by jazz musician Vince Guaraldi, remains one of the most popular holiday albums to this day.  This weekend though, you’ll have a couple chances to hear it live, in the unlikely setting of the small East Atlanta Village rock club, the EARL. WABE’s Myke Johns paid a visit to musicians Jeffrey Butzer and T.T. Mahoney to talk about their affinity for the holiday classic.

Jeffrey Butzer and T.T. Mahoney, along with special guests, will perform A Charlie Brown Christmas Thursday night at Marietta’s Strand Theater before moving on to a two-night-stand at the EARL, Friday and Saturday night. See a video from their 2011 performance below:
