Album Notes

Tasteful piano-bass-drums ensemble work in playful and wistful moods a la Vince Guaraldi (he of “A Charlie Brown Christmas” fame) by Triangle players and, on two cuts, singer Jeanne Jolly.

Little Town – The three of us began meeting at our church for late night trio sessions in 2007. Over the past two years we have developed a unique musical rapport, which we hope is evident on this recording. We set out to record fresh versions of familiar and not so familiar Christmas carols. Each track is a joyful song of Christmas, and we give special emphasis to the title track, Little Town, as a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. The final track, Always And Forever, is dedicated to our wives and our families, for their continued support for our music. We would like to say a very special thank you to Marybeth Childers for making this project possible through her vision and financial support.Thanks to Jeanne Jolly for giving us her superb vocals on Home and Little Town. Thanks to John Shepherd for the awesome cover design. Thanks for the support of our friends at Cornerstone Presbyterian and for the use of the church as a rehearsal space. And thanks to Chris Boerner and everyone at Sound Pure Studios for making this recording a truly pleasant and memorable experience. We sincerely hope that you will enjoy this album for many seasons to come.

Grant, Peter, & Jeff

REVIEWS

Just Makes me Happy
author: Nathan Shackles
I bought this album a week ago and have been playing it nearly non-stop since then. It's one of those albums that just makes you feel good. I try to purchase a couple new Christmas albums each year and I'm so glad I found this one. Every track has it's own unique personality, but I particularly like Little Town, Home (Jeanne Jolly has a mesmorizing voice) and Angels We Have Heard on High. Go buy it, you won't be disappointed!
