CALGARY Curbside Concerts launched during Alberta’s first wave of pandemic-lockdown offering employment to professional musicians and now the local company is offering Christmas music to small audiences. Performers bring portable sound equipment and provide entertainment to a household, typically from the roadside or driveway, hence the company name. “It’s been so overwhelming that people are truly craving some connection and if that’s done through Christmas carolling at a safe social distance, then that’s the job that I’m going to do,” said Michela Sheedy. The professional singer/songwriter and anthem singer for the Calgary Flames has performed dozens of these small, commissioned gigs and says the holiday music spread a special kind of magic.

In a year when many Christmas traditions have been upended, carol singers are finding ways to help the weary world rejoice By: Alan Small | Posted: 7:00 PM CST Friday, Dec. 18, 2020
Hark! Is that Harold singing? In 2020?
For those who thought this Christmas season would be one silent night after another, there is reason to rejoice. Some carollers are finding ways of making themselves heard, and heard safely.
During Wednesday’s early evening hours, Dan Scramstad and Pierre Freynet made their way to Bowhill Lane, a cul-de-sac in Charleswood, where they sang
We Wish You a Merry Christmas, Jingle Bells, Walking in a Winter Wonderland and other classics of the season for bundled-up folks on their front porches.
In response to the COVID 19 pandemic, musician and former CKUA host,
Matt Masters, set out to develop a new online platform to connect artists and audiences for live concert experiences that allowed for social distancing.
Curbside Concerts has now expanded to communities across Canada, and this month they’re aiming to spread a little holiday cheer.
Grant Stovel recently spoke with Masters about the growth of Curbside Concerts, and their new Christmas Carolling service. Check it out below!
