John McDermott & Friends: A Family Christmas December 15, 2007

"It’s not really Christmas until McDermott sings.” – Toronto Star

“I no longer think the holiday is about looking for things to make you happy. It’s about being with people you want to be with and remembering those who aren’t there,” says John.

John McDermott's musical roots are equal parts Scottish and Irish. His songs showcase his innate understanding and facility with traditional folk melodies as well as more contemporary stylings.
John's music conjures up a vivid emotional landscape; his simple but richly textured arrangements allow him to weave narratives - folk tales that conjure up an exact moment and place.
