A Winter’s Eve with Megan Burtt & Sturtz — The 5th Annual Sparkly Shenanigan Spectacular at eTown Hall
Put on your fanciest flannel and emotionally prepare yourself for an evening of heart-melting harmonies, mischievous musical antics. Megan Burtt with her band and Sturtz are back for the FIFTH year of their beloved holiday hootenanny:
A Winter’s Eve!
Expect original tunes, holiday classics, and enough musical cheer to melt even the grinchiest hearts. It's tradition, it's magic, it's a little weird in the best way—and it’s all happening at the ever-glorious eTown Hall.
If you’ve been before, you know. If you haven’t… we forgive you. But fix it this year.
Snow guaranteed*

About Megan Burtt:
Megan Burtt has returned with Witness, which Guitar Girl raves as "surely one of the best albums of 2024." The Colorado-based performer, a past Kerrville NewFolk Competition winner who also performs with the original country western band Road Pony, had been working on the project for years, but hit delays with illness and false starts. She really began to unlock new levels in her songwriting when she decided to stop dancing around what she really wanted to say. “I discovered that’s a side of myself I like as a songwriter,” she says. “It’s become a sensibility that I know how to rest in.”
The results were a long time coming, but they’re worth the wait. With unfailing honesty and vulnerability, Burtt—who self-produced the project—wrestles with weighty topics like the burden of her own aspirations (“Drugstore Brand”), generational trauma (“Little Girls”), and the end of an important relationship (“Unfinished Business,” “Good for You”). She also does it while mixing in doses of groove and pop smarts that make the lyrics hit even harder. Ultimately, even though she addresses thorny topics, there’s a sense of hope on Witness.
About Sturtz:
NPR’s All Songs Considered described Sturtz as “a reassuring breath of fresh air that pulls me back to simpler times." The quartet – Andrew Sturtz [vocals, guitar], Courtlyn Carpenter [cello, harmonies], Will Kuepper [bass, piano, harmonies], and Jim Herlihy [banjo, electric guitar, harmonies] - is serene and folksy, with melodic vocals soaring over the lower string instrumentals. Sturtz just released their second studio album Hyacinth in September 2024, and they're excited to be out touring on this album now. When they’re not playing music, you’ll probably find them milling flour, gardening, roasting coffee, or honing in on their photography skills.
