Returning for the third straight season, Hoosier-born singer-songwriter Jon McLaughlin will perform original Christmas tunes as well as holiday classics alongside some of his talented friends.

Jon McLaughlin & Friends: Home for the Holidays gets underway at 8 p.m. Friday, Dec. 5 at the Payne & Mencias Palladium in Carmel.

The Anderson native has been attracting fans with his heartfelt, hook-laden songwriting and impassioned delivery since his 2007 debut album, Indiana. He has released several full-lengths in the years since, most recently his new studio album Scenarios in October, revealing a true evolution in both his piano playing and singing. Joining him again will be American Idol winner Kris Allen and pop/soul singer-songwriter David Davis, as well as singer and Broadway actress Morgan James.
