And we've got one heck of a present for country music fans.

All three acts will take the stage for a special acoustic performance, followed by a full band show from Michigan's own JR & The Last Call.
And the best part? Tickets are just $20, with every penny benefiting Ele's Place, a local organization that provides grief support for children and teens who've lost someone close to them.
When Do WITL Country Christmas Party Tickets Go on Sale?
They go on sale Friday, October 30.
It's a chance to enjoy some incredible country music while making a real difference for families here in Mid-Michigan.
Meet the Stars of This Year's WITL Country Christmas Party
The Band Perry
Remember "If I Die Young"? How about "Better Dig Two" and "DONE."?
The Band Perry gave us some of country's biggest hits of the early 2010s, collecting Grammy, CMA and ACM awards along the way.
After taking a break for a couple of years, the group returned in 2025 with a new lineup featuring lead singer Kimberly Perry and her husband, Johnny Costello.
They've been making new music, including the single "Psychological," and now they're bringing their sound to Lansing for an intimate acoustic performance.
Kelsey Hart
Kentucky native Kelsey Hart has been turning heads in Nashville, both as a performer and a songwriter.
His romantic breakout hit "Life With You" was certified gold, and he's followed it with songs including "Fireworks" and "Love to Be That Guy."
Hart has also written songs recorded by Jake Owen, Dylan Scott and Trace Adkins.
He's one of those artists you'll want to be able to say you saw before he became a household name.
Jacob Hackworth
You might not recognize Jacob Hackworth's name just yet, but you've almost certainly heard his music.
The Missouri native helped write Bailey Zimmerman's #1 smash "Rock and a Hard Place," Tucker Wetmore's "Wine Into Whiskey," and Corey Kent's "This Heart."
Matter of fact, Corey Kent performed at our 2024 WITL Country Christmas Party!
Now Hackworth is stepping into the spotlight himself, with his own music including "What Took You So Long" and "Bad As I Do."
JR & The Last Call
Once the acoustic portion of the evening wraps up, we're turning up the volume.
Michigan's own JR & The Last Call will finish the night with a full-band performance featuring plenty of country favorites.
And yes, it's the same JR you hear every morning on the WITL Wake-Up Show.
How the WITL Country Christmas Party Helps Ele's Place
The WITL Country Christmas Party is about more than a great night of music.
Ele's Place has been helping grieving children and families in the Lansing area since 1991, providing a safe environment where kids and teens can process the death of a loved one.
Its support programs are offered at no cost to families.
We're proud to support that mission again this year, and we'd love to have you join us.
Tuesday, December 8. Grewal Hall. Four great acts. Twenty bucks. One very important cause.
That's what I call a pretty good Christmas present.
