Christmas on the Lam and Other Songs From the Season

We at Red House Records, based in the nation s icebox of Minnesota, have a lot of experience with below-zero temperatures and dark, snowy nights. Oddly enough, we ve never put out a record to mark the holiday season. Until now. We saw the light (no pun intended) and thought why can t a holiday compilation be a great record too? A request for songs brought out the best from Red House veterans and newcomers alike ...from Rock N Roll Hall of Famer Jorma Kaukonen to Red Hot Mama Davina & The Vagabonds... from the First Couple of Americana, Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams, to raw acoustic bluesman Charlie Parr...from covers of Elvis and Gordon Lightfoot to a modern-day spiritual from The Wailin Jennys. Like the season itself, it s an eclectic mix of lust, lament, and gratitude. Even Santa gets him some lovin (courtesy Bill Kirchen & Austin de Lone).
