Christmas is on the way — at The Commons

Can it be too early to be thinking of Christmas? Not if you’re planning to catch ex-bluegrass singer Tim Shelton and his “Very Vintage Christmas” free show slated Nov. 29 at The Commons, 300 Washington St. in downtown Columbus. The concert featuring a 12-piece jazz band highlights covers of some of the most loved Christmas music written and performed from the 1940s through the 1960s: Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Bing Crosby, Dean Martin and more.
