New Kori Pop Christmas EP (Free Download): more love goes into handmade gifts

Local singer/songwriter Kori Pop has an amazing holiday gift for her fans. The aptly named more love goes into handmade gifts is a free 4-song EP download.

She starts off with two yuletide classics, Christmas Time is Here and Rudie the Red-Nosed Reindeer (yes, Kori renames it slightly). Thenwe have two wonderful originals Messed Up This Christmas and To My Winter Child.

Whether classic or self-penned, Kori bring her pop-folk style and soft, angelic voice to all the tunes. On some tracks, there's even some electronic music touches.

New Andre Bisson CD: Rhythm and Blues Christmas

Tired of the usual sappy, low-energy, yuletide tunes? Well local musician Andre Bisson has the solution for you: he recently released, Rhythm and Blues Christmas, a new CD packed with funky, swingin', rockin' holiday delights.

Andre and friends take traditional tunes and add a major dose of R&B. Rudolph, Silent Night (which is anything but), Jingle Bells and more are given a great rump-shaking twist. The Christmas tunes end with a wonderful bluesy version of Please Come Home for Christmas.

As a holiday gift there's something old and something new at the end of the collection: Two bonus tracks - Free Ride Blues from his previous CD, Rhythm and Blues Experience, and a great version of Ain't Too Proud to Beg from the upcoming album Beyond the Covers.

This great yuletide disc is available at their amazing live shows and through cdbaby (CD/Download)
