“Cherish the Ladies” began their Celtic Christmas Tour on December 2nd, 2025 with a performance at the Shamrock House Music Room in East Durham, New York, USA.

The tour features 17 shows in 20 days, covering 10 states, and finishing on December 21st in Bronx, New York.

This year’s show is extra special as they will celebrate 40 years on the road, and they are looking forward to performing their family-friendly concert that truly has something for everyone and gets everyone joining in on the fun.

The group includes musicians Mirella Murray (accordion), Joanie Madden (flute, whistles, vocals), Mary Coogan (guitar), Nollaig Casey (fiddle), Kate Purcell (vocals, guitar), Hannah Collins (piano, concertina), Don Stiffe (vocals, guitar), Bruce Foley (vocals, guitar), Cheryl Prashker and John Madden (percussion), and Max Morden (trumpet, brass).

Lighting up the stage every night are world-class step dancers: James Greenan, Tyler Schwartz, Joe Harrison, and Nathan Pilatzke, as well as Riverdancer Noel Spillane joining them on a few shows.

Their program will feature music from their four Christmas albums — a joyful evening of Irish music, song, and dance that promises to lift your spirits, warm your heart, and bring the magic of the season to the whole family.
