(LA VETA, COLO.—Dec. 25, 2008) “Christmas In A Small Town” filled the valley with the spirit of music and community celebration at the Tims Art Quilt Studio last weekend. Ricky Tims, his friend Nashville singer Kat Bowser and Jeff Bilyeau performed Christmas songs. Six concerts were held from Thursday through Saturday.

The concert featured some new material created entirely by Tims, “I think I might have enough for another album”, one from Spain, one from France and several classic favorites that the crowd joined in on.

Tims utilized many instruments to produce the magnificent sounds of this years show, including; Bilyeau on the Didgeridoo (an instrument used by Australian Aborigines) and Tims on the piano, organ, recorder and his new (refurbished by the Enke’s) toy piano originally given to his cousin.
