ROCKLAND — Maine’s own “American Idol,” singer Julia Gagnon, will bring a special “Home for the Holidays” concert to the Strand Theatre stage on Saturday, Dec. 14, at 7:30 p.m. Gagnon

will be joined by her fiancé and musical partner, Nate Haven, along with a six-piece backing band, to sing holiday favorites along with the popular songs that launched her star turn on the hit TV show.
