Mannheim Steamroller Christmas brings the holiday show to Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Auditorium in Chattanooga for a festive night of classic carols given the band's signature eclectic sound. Back in 1984, Mannheim Steamroller's Chip Davis set out to reinvigorate traditional Yuletide favorites, and the result became a seasonal phenomenon. The band was the first to reach the Billboard 200 album chart with a holiday album.
