Christmas Music, 2024

 

The Light  Elliott Murphy acoustic, Christmas sounds melding with chime-y guitars, male vocalist kindred to Tom Waits, "seeing the light at the end of the tunnel" living in hope, "break from the news" "this world is so transitional," "metaphysical." "cross over that mystical boundary." 

 

I Ruined Christmas  Refestramus  Contemporary art-rock band, female fronted-vocals like Miley Cyrus, bells, "I ruined Christmas this year...It's like I told you before, it won't happen again, my dear."  This is a list of things she's done to reindeer, family members, and the eggnog!  

Today and All The New Year Dan Berggren “Greensleeves,” acoustic guitar and tambourine, sung by a tenor and backup voices with updated lyrics for the New Year, “may we all of humanity live in harmony and find strength in diversity….”, aiming for good deeds Today and All the New Year | Dan Berggren

Joy to The World Rachael Sage  gentle soprano like a young Olivia Newton John’s delivery, music like Regina Spektor’s “Joy to the world” with pulse, cello is rhythm instrument and strings, guitar, light accordion “Joy!Joy!”    

Joy to the World I Guess  Rebecca Loebe and Findlay Napier  This song is about people’s arguments through during the holiday season, and the resolutions we make to fight less, “Joy to the world I guess….  There are friends we no longer will see in the holidays, because they’re shadows in the moonlight on the lawn.”
