For fans of Christmas music. There is a new project (at least I think it's new) that is headed by John Blasucci. He is the main keyboard player for Dennis DeYoung (formerly of Styx) and also the head keyboardist for Mannheim Steamroller. (so I'm guessing he knows his way around the piano). His Luminare project is coming out with what appears to be a full album of Christmas music that features 4 vocalists.
Here is the lead single. I know it isn't even Halloween yet, but I think it's probably ok to listen to this one song.

Here is the second single from this forthcoming Christmas project. This time it is the classic "Carol Of The Bells" (an instrumental track).

I'm not a big fan of most Christmas music, but I actually liked this one too.

I don't do christmas albums or instrumentals, but that was pretty good.

Same with me. An instrumental Christmas album would be completely off the table!

Another new track released from this Christmas project. This one is called "You Look Like Christmas" and is song featuring one of the male singers. I have no idea if this is an original track, but I've never heard it before.

I went to YT and listened to it. I like it. It reminds me a little of my wife's country channel. (which isn't real country anymore)

I got a slight modern country vibe from it myself, but I couldn't tell if it was the singer's vocal approach or the acoustic guitar or the fact that it all sounds like bad Bon Jovi now.
