Siberian Solstice, a Trans Siberian Orchestra Tribute band, is beginning its 18th season on the road this year. Made up of 10 members on stage from the tri-star area, this band has remained a holiday tradition for families and individuals that have attended their concerts.
According to founding member and band manager David Coonrod of Defiance Ohio, the band started as a church praise band after a parishioner suggested they learn a few (TSO) Trans Siberian Orchestra songs for Christmas. They tried it, and their first official event started in 2006. “We have kept it open and free to the public (for most venues),” he added. “It’s a way for people who can’t afford to see the big TSO show. We wanted a Christmas show they can take the whole family to and not break the bank.”
The band is scheduled every weekend from now until December 22. Every year we have added more songs, expanded the light show to include lasers, and new sound equipment and live TV cameras along with multiple video projection screens,” said Garnett McGladdery, lead singer, creative musical director and electric guitar player.
Siberian Solstice will be in concert in Hicksville at the Huber Opera House on Sunday, December 15, 2024 at 7:00 p.m.
