We continue our Virtual Happy Holidays with a personal favorite: Liv and Jordy wishing us Season’s Greetings in 2011.

Olvia Platt and Jordan Black were high schoolers at the time (Liv at Parsippany Hills and Jordy at Morristown High), and The Jersey Girls, as they sometimes were known, were in great demand around Greater Morristown.

Video: Olivia Platt and Jordan Black sing ‘Silver Bells,’ in 2011:

Mentored by jazz luminary Grover Kemble, the duo charmed The Minstrel stage (now The Troubadour), the Heartlands Hayride show, annual holiday sing-alongs aboard Whippany Railway Museum trains, Festival Earth, and our Morristown Green Music Festival and Morristown Green Songwriters Night.

If you see this, Liz and Jordy, thanks for the memories. And if you ever want to do a reunion concert, Morristown Green is here for you!

Happy Holidays!
