about

Christmas is about friendships, family, relationships and good times together. Already collaborating through Birch Beer Records, good friends Dan Cloutier, Kim Jennings and Levi Schmidt challenged each other to write songs of wintry Christmas cheer during the heat of the summer of 2010.

And they did. The three compadres then spent one September day in the studio and came out with 10 tracks they are extremely proud of. Christmas music can be fun, joyous, celebratory, reflective, and occasionally, heavy or angst-ridden. It is, after all, folk music.

“Recording this album was by far the most fun I have ever had in the studio. And I think that comes through in this music.” – Dan Cloutier

“I went into the studio with almost no expectations. What can you really get done with just one day in the studio? Lightning in a bottle…that’s what.” – Kim Jennings

“This record is the product of the single most joyful studio session in which I have ever been involved. I think that the collective happiness and energy of us three friends really shines through in this music, and that's what makes this disc special to me.” – Levi Schmidt
