Editorial Reviews

Dan Rivkin, Metromix.com
If you look like a new wave band, sound like a new wave band and act like a new wave band, I guess you are a new wave band. Organs weave, pianos meander and guitars clip in and out of a steady beat. Go ahead and party like it's 1979. Tap your feet and hum along to the pop trio's songs about love gone bad.

Product Description
Sincere, potent, and passionate late 70's or early 80's "new wave" feel. Heavily influenced by British bands such as Elvis Costello and the Attractions, Pulp, the Jam and the Police.

Album Description

John Gracie's voice was meant for Christmas carols! It is consistently stated that John Gracie will surely put you in the Christmas Spirit. John also knew how to produce a Christmas album to instill the Christmas spirit,this CD is intimately produced with the prominent instruments being John's voice and the nylon-string guitar. He's added some nice production touches with the music box feel on Away in a Manger, the trumpet on God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, the cello on O Holy Night, the saucy fiddle on Winter Wonderland and his own children singalong on the Children's Medley. John sings the melodies as they were written. He says why change songs that have remained in our hearts for hundreds of years. The song that makes people go out and buy this CD is the John Gracie original, Cape Breton Christmas Morn, written around his own memories of growing up with his family in Cape Breton Nova Scotia. People say they can relate to the lines that talk of Mom baking pie'! s with a love that's found deep in her eyes and the image of Dad in his big chair as friends come to call. John wrote this song while his Dad was dying of lung cancer, so there is no doubt that people can sense the love and emotion that comes from the lyrics and melody of this John Gracie favourite. Fans comment that it's like having John in their living room, the sound is so intimate. This album is guaranteed to be your favourite for the Holiday Season!
