Aug 212023

Award-winning hitmakers Phil Vassar and Pam Tillis are teaming up and hitting the road together for their “Holidays and Hits” 2023 Christmas tour. See below for full list of tour dates!

“I love doing Christmas shows and I’m really excited to be going out with Pam. I’ve always respected her so much and I know it’s going to be a really great show,” shared Vassar.

The chart-topping singer-songwriters will embark on their “Holidays and Hits” tour on Nov. 30, kicking off with a show at the State Theatre in New Brunswick, N.J. The pair will be performing holiday favorites along with their iconic hits during the six-city jaunt throughout the midwest and northeastern U.S.

“Phil is a musician and singer-songwriter that I’ve always had a lot of respect for. He’s bringing a whole bundle of 2000s country gems, and I’m bringing the 90s flavor. We’ll be rounding out the evening with as many timeless Christmas tunes as we can fit it in! I’m really looking forward to teaming up with Phil to make it a memorable evening for the whole family,” exclaimed Tillis.
