Listen to ‘2000 Miles’ by Stumbleine feat Elizabeth Heaton from Midas Fall:

 

We asked some of our favourite songwriters to create their own Christmassy covers or originals. The result is a truly heart-warming collection of songs including covers of age-old classics like ‘Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas’ (Jack Watts) and ‘Peace On Earth / Little Drummer Boy’ (The Favourite Bench, with Francesco Carlucci from Stearica); more modern classics like The Pretenders’ ‘2000 Miles’ (Stumbleine feat Elizabeth Heaton from Midas Fall) and a slow-burning soulful rendition of Mud’s ‘Lonely This Christmas’ (Oliver Spalding); as well as some gorgeous originals by Reigns (‘Melchior’) and Jack Watts (‘That’s Christmas’), plus a Christmassy makeover of the Etta James classic ‘At Last’ (Elizabeth Heaton). The long-dormant Thee More Shallows have even resurfaced with a rousing rendition of ‘Santa Baby’!

For something fresh, heartfelt and a bit different this year, why not make it ‘A Very Monotreme Christmas’.

‘A Very Monotreme Christmas’ will be available on November 30th as a digital release and also on CD in a slimline card wallet.
