“We are thrilled to bring this unique musical group to the Theater in Wood. It is sure to be an evening of great music and a lot of dancing!” says, A.O. Lucy, Executive Director if Believe in Books Literacy Foundation.

Christabel and the Jons is currently on tour from Louisiana to Maine and everywhere in between, promoting their album Custom Made for You and singing a bunch of new bossa nova and country swing tunes which will soon be recorded on their third CD, The Same Mistake. Lead singer and songwriter Christa DeCicco is earning a reputation as one of the southeast's finest laid-back jazz singers. Old suitcases and vintage clothes from the 1920s-1950s give the performance a nostalgic ambiance, but it's the songs that really captivate.

In addition to headlining many shows, Christabel and the Jons has also performed at numerous festivals in the US including Bonnaroo, Riverbend, Bele Chere, Blue Plum Festival, Shakori Hills Festival, Bristol Rhythm and Roots Reunion, and Sundown in the City. They’ve also opened for many national acts including The Brazilian Girls, The Be Good Tanyas, The Red Stick Ramblers, The Wilders, and Loudon Wainwright.

The Theater in the Wood is a fundraising project of the Believe in Books Literacy Foundation, a charitable 501 (c)(3) non-profit. The net proceeds of the Theater activities go toward their regional Outreach programs, serving communities in Western Maine and Northern New Hampshire.
