Entertaining since the first time he managed to make his grandparents laugh, McMahon discovered very early how much he loved connecting with people and hopefully provided them with moments of joy. His latest releases, One More Fire and Lost & Found, have been a fiery re-entry into the world with the hope to keep connecting and inspiring people to find their life passion and live today.

INSPIRITO VOCAL ENSEMBLE – When the Song of the Angels is Stilled

Nov 25 & 26. We invite you to join us for our upcoming concerts featuring an inspiring and eclectic selection of music that will once again take you, as the listener, on a journey and bring you to the crossroad that many of us find ourselves to reach this time of the year. What does Christmas really mean and what is, and becomes, our responsibility every day?
The program was inspired by the following words by Howard Thurman: “When the song of the angels is stilled, when the star in the sky is gone, when the kings and the princes are home, when the shepherds are back with their flocks, the work of Christmas begins. To find the lost, to heal the broken, to feed the hungry, to release the prisoner, to rebuild the nations, to bring peace amongst brothers, to make music in the heart.”
