Standard Black Heavyweight Vinyl
Barenaked for the Holidays is now available for the first time on vinyl! This very limited edition, 180-gram red vinyl will be released on November 18th but is available for pre-order exclusively to indie retailers now.
The popular holiday-themed collection achieved GOLD certification in Canada and hit the Top 100 U.S. Billboard album chart, when it was first released in 2004. The album includes seven original songs, alongside faithful and modern interpretations of traditional Christmas and Hanukkah songs, steeped with the musicianship and sense of humour the band is known for. Highlights include “Green Christmas” notably written for the blockbuster Ron Howard film Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000), the heartwarming “Snowman”, which Rolling Stone calls, “a tender original”, Jim Creeggan’s jazzy “Christmas Pics”, and Kevin Hearn’s nostalgic “Christmastime (Oh Yeah)”, which is “pretty and understated”, according to PopMatters. Sarah McLachlan is featured on “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen / We Three Kings”, while Michel Bublé appears on the original track, “Elf’s Lament”.
