Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Here is my gift to all of you (and the rest of the internet world): a short album of christmas songs! Every year I've been trying to record a christmas album to keep my musicking skills sharp. Hope y'all enjoy! Welcome to my fourth annual compilation of Christmas songs, recorded and performed in the weeks leading up to the big holiday! I’m proud to present 6 songs for my friends and family (plus a little something extra hiding at the end). It’s my first year out of college and I’m finally getting back into music in a big way. It’s been a challenging year navigating the post-grad life but I’m slowly making my way. I hope this Christmas album bring you joy and mirth this season, and for many seasons to come. It was all recorded in my house with the help of my friends and family- the most important people, and things, at Christmastime. Gifts and material items are nice but what really is important is taking the time to be around the ones you love and cherish! I’d like to thank everyone who helped with this album: Tim Rottenberg on trumpet, Matt Craven on drums, and the Your Yellow Dress Christmas Choir featuring Alex Woodward, Eric Shimabukuro, Nathan Ochoa, Chris Rottenberg, Matt Craven, Catherine-Jeanette Touchstone, James McKinley, and Jacob Satola. I played acoustic and electric guitars, banjo, saw, tonette, percussion, sleigh bells, piano, organ, baritone ukulele, tenor ukulele, bass, mandolin, and glockenspiel. I’d also like to thank Sally Steele Corbett for making the cover! It's also free to download! If you'd like a physical copy on CD or cassette let me know!
