MUSIC PICKS

FRIDAY Dave Koz and Friends

For the 22nd year, the renowned saxophonist is sharing the Christmas spirit with a holiday tour. Joining Koz for this round are guitarist/singer Jonathan Butler, singer Melissa Manchester, saxophonist Michael Lington and singer/bassist Chris Walker. Koz and his pals will perform Christmas (and Hanukkah) songs, as well as familiar material from their respective catalogs.

8 p.m. Friday. $42-$85. Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre, 2800 Cobb Galleria Parkway, Atlanta. 1-800-7453000, ticketmaster.com.

SUNDAY

Trans-Siberian Orchestra

The perennial mixture of buzzing guitars, planetarium-worthy lasers and the spirit of the holidays will this year go back to the roots of the touring behemoth known as TSO. “Christmas Eve and Other Stories,” the 1996 first record from the prog rockers, will receive the live treatment with new staging and enhanced special effects.

3 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Sunday. $49.50-$79.50. Infinite Energy Arena, 6400 Sugarloaf Parkway, Duluth. 770626-2464, infiniteenergycenter.com.

TUESDAY Brett Eldredge

The country hunk released his “Glow” album in 2016 and a deluxe edition last year, and the album’s popularity spawned a quick tour. The concert will feature songs from “Glow” — which spawned a No. 1 adult contemporary hit with his cover of “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” with Meghan Trainor — as well as other holiday classics.

With Barry Rothbart. 8 p.m. Tuesday. $54.50$168.50. Coca-Cola Roxy, 800 Battery Ave. SE, Atlanta. 1-800-745-3000, ticketmaster.com.

WEDNESDAY Hanson

The Hanson brothers — Taylor, Zac and Isaac — are expected to perform a mix of holiday classics and material from their forthcoming 2020 album. It’s yet another indication of the band’s versatility, as last year they teamed with major symphonies for their “String Theory” roadshow.

With Paul McDonald and Joshua and The Holy Rollers. 8 p.m. Wednesday. $39.50. Buckhead Theatre, 3110 Roswell Road, Atlanta. 1-800745-3000, ticketmaster.com.

Michael W. Smith

The singer-pianist will be joined by Marc Martel, known for his uncanny vocal resemblance to Freddie Mercury (some of his vocals were used in the “Bohemian Rhapsody” movie) as well as the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. Over the years, Smith has released some of the most affecting holiday compositions among his four seasonal albums, but his 1989 “Christmas” still reigns supreme.

8 p.m. Wednesday.$39.50-$99.50. Atlanta Symphony Hall, 1280 Peachtree St. NE, Atlanta. 1-800-745-3000, ticketmaster.com.
