As heard daily on SIRIUS/XM's "Holly" Channel and in STARBUCKS, DEAN & DeLUCA, CAFFE NERO and COSTA COFFEE locations around the world for the 2010 holiday season! And featuring Brandon Wilde's modern rock track "Silent Night" as heard on the holiday episode of Fox-TV's "Lie To Me."
USA TODAY'S TOP HOLIDAY ALBUMS OF THE YEAR! USA Today says: "Fans of rock's early holiday classics (like Phil Spector's "A Christmas Gift for You" and "The Beach Boys' Christmas Album") would do well to seek out this collection of New York-area indie acts like Casey Shea, Brandon Wilde and Creaky Boards. In addition to charming arrangements of "Jingle Bells", "Joy to the World" and A Girl Called Eddy's "The Little Boy That Santa Claus Forgot", it also includes winning originals like Chrissy Anders' "Christmastime in Love."
LISTED AS ONE OF THE TOP 5 HOLIDAY ALBUMS OF THE YEAR BY THE MINNEAPOLIS STAR-TRIBUNE! Jon Bream of the Star-Tribune lists "A Very Joma Christmas" along with Bob Dylan, Sugarland, Andrea Bocelli and others among the very best holiday records of the year. He writes: "This compilation by a New York indie label is December's freshest sounding disc. Mercury on Fire slows "Jingle Bells" to a minimalist, pa-rum-pa-pum-pum pace, Brandon Wilde's Phil Spector-like original song "Christmastime Again" warms like egg nog, and obscurities such as the sad, jazzy "The Little Boy That Santa Claus Forgot" by A Girl Called Eddy are welcome little gifts."
LISTED BY THE GRAND RAPIDS PRESS AS ONE OF THE TOP HOLIDAY ALBUMS OF THE YEAR! John Sinkevics of the Grand Rapids Press says "there's a host of new holiday CDs that pass the tree-gathering test with flying red-and-green colors ....The 17 tracks by Joma artists Casey Shea, Brandon Wilde and others pack a surprisingly infectious, pop-laced sort of holiday punch."
With influences from artists as diverse as Amy Winehouse, the Beatles, Radiohead, Bob Marley, Pink Floyd, Feist, The Beach Boys and Nat King Cole, “A Very Joma Christmas” is a celebration of - and a tribute to - popular holiday music of all genres. This holiday collection includes many of the songwriters and artists featured on the “Joma Indie Rock & Pop, Vol. 1” sampler who have placed songs onto TV shows such as “Gossip Girl”, “Royal Pains”, "Castle", "Mercy", “Reaper” and “Men In Trees”. With 17 tracks of both original songs and new takes on the holiday classics, “A Very Joma Christmas” features songs by some of the best bands and artists from New York City's vibrant indie music scene, including All Night Chemists, A Girl Called Eddy, Brandon Wilde, Casey Shea, Briana Winter, Tewar, DP, Creaky Boards, Mercury on Fire, Us, Craig Chelser, Chrissy Anders and Mia Crosby.
