Melvin Seals lead an all-star cast for a second night of A Merry Jerry Christmas Band at the Fox Theatre. Similar to the first night, the second night’s line-up included Melvin Seals on keyboards and vocals, John Kadlecik on guitar and vocals, Oteil Burbridge on bass and vocals, Halina Janusz on backing vocals, Lisa Malsberger on backing vocals, Ed Fletcher on drums and Brad Rhodus on drums.

Proceeds from the Merry Jerry event supported Story Book Adventure – a local organization, which brings both music and literacy education to kids around the Inland Empire metropolitan area located east of Los Angeles.
