GUANTANAMO BAY, Cuba (NNS) -- Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) at Naval Station (NS) Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, presented celebrity country music group Emerson Drive, Dec. 3.

The Grammy-nominated act performed at the Downtown Lyceum as part of the installation's annual holiday parade and Christmas celebration.

"What a great way to kick off the holiday season," said MWR Community Activities Director Amiee MacDonnell. "Events like these are important to give the community a way to start the holidays in an enjoyable way for everyone."

Emerson Drive entertained the community with their recent singles, "Moments" and "Fall Into Me," before inviting children in the audience on-stage to sing along with classic Christmas songs.

"We chose a country act for the holiday performance based on customer feedback from our last entertainment survey," said MacDonnell. "Emerson Drive appealed to all audiences and this was a truly special holiday performance."
