Eight Gigs: Winter Summer Solstice Celebration

Fri., Dec. 18, Center for the Arts, 8 p.m., $27-$30

Fans of Barbara Higbie, Lisa Lynne and Alex De Grassi take note: This show will only happen once around these parts, and it will also feature lesser-known musical artists George Tortorelli, Aryeh Frankfurter and Dr. Alex Kelly. Whether you're into the flute, cello, harp or the acoustic styling of De Grassi alone, there will be something for everyone. Windham Hill, a respected name in top-shelf new age and seasonal music, presents a delightful package sure to please both the label's longtime enthusiasts and newcomers. 314 West Main in Grass Valley, www.degrassi.com.
