Great Christmas Music from The Blenders
Blenders: "1. Hark The Herald Angels Sing - The Blenders (90's)"
These guys are one of the best acapella groups out there. Maybe THE best, dare I say better than Rockapella, the essential acapella group?
When It Snows is a gorgeous album with all your favorite Christmas music- 'Twas the Nigt Before Christmas,' 'Waling In a Winter Wonderland,''Sleigh Ride,' and more...the title song, When It Snows is one of their originals, I believe. I've never heard of it before, and I don't see it listed anywhere else, but who knows.
They do some fun stuff in some of the songs to mix it up...they get silly in a lot of their songs over their many albums, but this is mostly standard Christmas music with minimal instruments (I hear sleigh bells on one song, so it's VERY minimal, which is always nice for acapella music.)
Be sure to check out this CD and their other holiday album, Nog (from 1997.) You can't go wrong.
