Rhodes, Kimmie
Miracles On Christmas Day
This is the premier collection of Kimmie Rhodes original Christmas songs. One Christmas, years back, inspired while watching Willie Nelson open multiple packages all containing platinum records of his beloved song, Pretty Paper, Kimmie pledged to write a holiday song every year. Now, as a gift to her friends worldwide, she and Gabe Rhodes have collaborated on brilliant new productions of these songs.With a glittering cast of musicians including cellist Brian Standefar (Alejandro Escovedo), percussionist Hunt Sales (Todd Rundgren, Iggy Pop), Nigel Eaton on hurdy gurdy (Page and Plant) and Joel Guzman on accordion (Joe Ely), this is perfect pre-holiday feast for her legion of fans who have come to love her gritty-to-whimsical music. Also included is a cover of Patty Griffin's "Mary" and two classics; Carol Of The Bells(an ancient pagan Ukranian chant) and What Child Is This (set to Greensleeves).
