I Can'T Wait (For Christmas Time) + Snowy Night In Ohio - Vinyle Blanc

Description

For the first time since the release of his viral 2020 Christmas album, A Joyful Sound, Kelly Finnigan (Monophonics) returns with two new original holiday tracks. “I Can’t Wait (For Christmas Time)” is a heavy yet relaxed track, with a Rust Belt soul groove and a classic pop structure. Carried by warm harmonies and measured instrumentation, the track highlights Finnigan’s delicate voice, accompanied here by Kendra Morris and her band on backing vocals. In the vein of his previous recordings or the gems of The Escorts and The Four Mints, this track is perfectly suited to resonate with family, wrapped under the tree until Christmas morning. On the B-side, “Snowy Night in Ohio” unfolds a cinematic atmosphere, like a midnight train connecting Cincinnati to Memphis. Inspired by Finnigan’s first winter in Ohio, his love for gospel, and Isaac Hayes’ brass orchestrations, this instrumental track stands out for its subdued intensity and icy soul. Accompanied by Terry Cole, Jimmy James, Billy Aukstik, and Morgan Price, Finnigan slips in an intimate and sincere voice message. A comforting release to savor after a trying year — a record to share, imbued with warmth and the spirit of Christmas.
