Richie McDonald of Lonestar with Harding Academy Students Click to hear the A cappella accompany Richie McDonald 
 
The Richie McDonald concert was truly an impressive evening! He made the audience feel right at home as he played the piano while telling the stories that inspired many of his songs. The  A cappella chorus ensemble accompanied him in O Holy Night and Do You Hear What I Hear?
