\n\"Ventura<\/a><\/span>There are plenty of music related holiday events to get you into the swing of the season. Let\u2019s start with the Ones to Watch Productions hosting their first show at the Poinsettia Pavilion on Friday, December 16, with The Brambles and Bryan Titus Duo opening up for The White Buffalo. As you may know, Steve and Polly Hoganson (formerly of Zoey\u2019s) continue to help artists featuring showcases such as this around the Gold Coast. This intimate holiday concert being called \u201cI\u2019m dreaming of a White Buffalo Christmas\u201d features the incredibly talented Jake Smith whose songs have been featured in many films and television shows including \u201cSons of Anarchy.\u201d\u00a0 Polly told me, \u201cWe’re excited to bring Jake The White Buffalo back to Ventura for another holiday concert and food drive to benefit Turning Point Foundation. It’s OTW Productions first time show at the lovely Poinsettia Pavilion and we hope to bring more concerts to this event center.\u201d\u00a0 If you\u2019ve caught one of Jake\u2019s concert before, you won\u2019t want to miss him up close and personal, Polly said, \u201cThe White Buffalo’s rare solo performances are special because you get an intimate insight into his songwriting and a connection that you don’t normally get at an arena show.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kelly\u2019s Lot will be at Four Brix Winery on Saturday, December 10.\u00a0 The band recently released a new song, \u201cColours of December\u201d in honor of members of the military and their families. There will be a silent auction and donations accepted for TAPS, an organization that provides assistance to families who have lost a family member in the military. \u00a0Four Brix will be offering tri-tip dinners and pizzas, doors open at 5, Kelly\u2019s Lot plays at 7.<\/p>\n

Chopper Fest arrives at the Ventura Fairgrounds on Sunday, December 11 with live music from The Shari Puorto Band, Hard Six and One More From the Road, a Lynryd Skynyrd tribute band; there will be a pre party the night before at The Tavern with music from Revolution Mother and the Rubberneck Lions.<\/p>\n

Big props to Tommy and Paddy Marsh who will open for The Robert Cray Band at the Rose in Pasadena on December 9.<\/p>\n

The 14th annual Nardcore Xmas food drive will be at The Garage on Saturday, December 17 featuring music from Shattered Faith, Hymen Blasters, Mother of Dissension, COA and Side Effects.\u00a0 Along with accepting canned goods, the organizers are asking for new blankets and\/or cash donations which will go to Food Share of Oxnard. Tax deductible receipts available.<\/p>\n

You finally you should take a break from shopping and take the whole family out for a good old fashion holiday sing-along at the Ventura Theater. This event will be held on Sunday December 18 from 3-5 pm. Price of entry is one new unwrapped toy per family.<\/p>\n
