Default Silent Night

I'm a little disappointed - I was planning to record and post 3 or 4 Christmas songs I've been working on, but ran out of time. Thought I'd post this up before we're totally past Christmas. This Christmas carol has a lot of significance for me and I hope you enjoy it as well as you celebrate the holiday season.

I'm happy for any suggestions on how to improve the performance.

Also, do check out the YT description - this song has a very interesting backstory, and makes the song especially relevant in this war torn time.

Merry Christmas and best wishes for a great year ahead in 2016.

Steve

Very nice and enjoyable. Glad to see I'm not the only one with a day bed in their studio/bedroom/office....

Merry Christmas!

Thanks for listening and commenting. The daybed is soon to go to a better home. Not sure what to do with the space? Hummn.
