Featured track, available from December 23 to December 30
Slow Leaves is bringing a bit of cheer to this holiday season with a new collaboration with Jill Barber, "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas". The singer/songwriter, who earned Songwriter of the Year and the 2021 Western Canadian Music Awards, is fresh from the release of his latest full-length, aptly titled Holiday, via Winnipeg-based Birthday Cake Records and Make My Day Records (Germany, Switzerland, Austria). Coming up, he's on stage at The Park Theatre on January 22 for The Joyful Project Presents: Concert for Socks, a fundraiser in support of the Main Street Project also featuring Daysormay, Kilusan, Another Lover, Northern Royals, and hosted by Michael Redhead Champagne. We've got his soothing holiday classic for your Christmas playlists this week. Press play, check out the music video (made using public domain footage from the Manitoba Home Movie Archive), and stay tuned for more from Slow Leaves in 2022!
