Biography

"The song Christmas Cheer was written on Christmas day in 2011 during my long tenure in Portland, OR. The music bounced along in my head effortlessly that morning while the tailored lyrics were later brought in by masterful song-smith, Joe New. Although it was released in 2012 on my Solo Christmas album, it hasn't had much play-time other than the spins and Christmas gigs of past Decembers. I'm delighted that it is revived and released as a Christmas 2024 single (Dark Shadow Recording) with Full Cord and performed in the style of 40s and 50s Western Swing bands with three-part instrument harmonies, a lofty Christmas swing and a bouncing grass section. The lyrics conjure the sentiments of many adults at Christmas time which is to stay away from the hustle and bustle of gift giving while being close to the ones you love". - Brian Oberlin Oct. 2024
