last year, the great addition to our holiday listening was Hotel Cafe’s Winter Songs. a collection of female singer/songwriters with phenomenal voices and unique arrangements. our friend (and by friend i mean we’ve talked to her a couple times) Sara Bareilles, sings on the amazing opening track.
It’s not a perfect album (i usually skip one or two). but overall, it’s amazing. check it out: http://www.hotelcafe.com/wintersongs
