About

Planting Seeds' very favorite time of year! This was the second of what was suppose to be a yearly compilation. It features the first appearance on a Planting Seeds' release by NYC folk chanteuse Linda Draper. It also features a rare and previously unreleased track by Teenbeat recording artist Tracy Shedd. Scott Meiggs does a rare duet and Scotland's Language of Flowers makes an appearance with their instrumental "Christmas." Holiday Cheer indeed.


Reviews/Press Quotes

(unknown source)

This 2002 acoustic pop holiday EP comes after the label's Christmas Underground compilation of a few seasons back, four original tunes plus Xavier Pelleuf's singalong version of "White Christmas." "Holiday Tune in F#" by The National Splits humorously touches on "smoking in the bathroom" and "doing shots with Uncle Jim." Tracy Shedd's "I Will Keep You Warm" isn't really a holiday tune, but the ballad does kind of fit among the other songs. Linda Draper channels Joni Mitchell on "Merry Xmas," a nostalgic mourning of lost love. Language of Flowers wraps things up with "Christmas," a dirge-y electro-pop instrumental number.
