The Mining City is in for a rare holiday treat this year.
Butte's own Mark Staples will be in concert Dec. 16 at the Mother Lode Theatre. Some of Staples' most well known songs include "Mining City Christmas," "Our Lady of the Rockies" and "When Montana Sings."
Although it's the first show Staples has given in Butte since 2000, it is actually the 25th anniversary of his first show there in 1984.
His Mining City Christmas concerts have raised over $100,000 for Butte civic, charitable and educational causes. These shows have sold out every time he has appeared in Butte.
Tickets are on sale at the Mother Lode Theatre.
