Comment:
they say they (as
a quartet) are cello folk
combo from Texas, USA. By listening to this 13-track Christmas song
miscellany the statement is
a partial-truth
because they exploit
additionally keyboards and guitars as well. Of course, the expression
“cello folk” may frighten an indie music lover. It might be
he/she starts to think about some
rigid classical music
oppressed artists or sombre
Apocalyptica, or something
like that. However, by listening to these fabulous new arrangements
of Christmas songs and smooth permutations in chords and volatile
solemn easiness
it reminds starkly of Sufjan Stevens (and his set
of Christmas songs being
released some years ago at Noisetrade). In
a word, beef up your mood with these 51 minutes on 25th
December. In fact, it would function at any time. At least the experience of mine proved it. And Jesus would
like it.
