WOW. These simply heavenly harmonies by K3 lifted everyone to a higher place at McGlohon Theater at Spirit Square in Charlotte, NC! Kelsey D. Waller, Ke'Andra Davis and Karen Poole shared quite a gift with their performance of "O Come, O Come Emmanuel". There were so many wow performances at this year's Tosco Music Holiday Party -- check back for more performance highlights as they become available.
