A Few We Missed

We play a lot of music on the Sounds of Christmas.  Our on-air library is approaching seven thousand tracks.  It's a labor of love, really, but we work pretty hard finding as much great Christmas music as we can.

Even so, sometimes we miss something.

Here are a few I've just come across.  I haven't been able to find any of these for sale, so it looks like they were made for the love of the music.  That's the same reason the Sounds of Christmas exists.

Picture
This is a Seattle band called This Providence.  They do a pretty cool version of "All I Want For Christmas Is You".  Yes, the Mariah Carey song.  I know it's become a new standard, and almost every singer and band take their shot it.  But I think these guys bring some new excitement to this one, and I'm looking forward to playing it this year!

If you click the picture, you'll go the band's MySpace page where you can hear their version of this Christmas song.

This is Kid Andersen.  He's a Norwegian blues singer, who now calls California home.  And he does a really good job with "Merry Christmas, Baby".

If you click the picture you can hear it for yourself on Kid's Mypace page. 


And this is Canadian rock band Courage My Love. While I also found them on MySpace, they also made a video of their rockin' version of "I'll Be Home For Christmas".
Hope you'll check these folks out, and you'll be hearing them (and many more) when we go back on the air November 1!

May you always believe in Santa Claus!
