about

When The Maple Blues Band was wrapping the sessions for their upcoming full length album they put together a re-working and new arrangement of the classic, Blue Christmas to be released as a single. Every band should have a holiday song and this is their contribution. The approach was unique, a backing track was laid down in the studio that would fit with a vocal lifted from a portastudio demo created by the late Kenny Brown in the 80`s. The two blended perfectly to form a timeless rendition of a well know standard.
