REVIEWS

Captures the maritime holiday spirit, beautifully written and produced.
author: Hannah Case
The Oyster Boys have done it again....combining Jeff and Kevin's wit and touching verse as well as inspired musicianship by the rest of the boys Tom Guay (hammer dulicmer) Randy Neilson (keyboards) and Steve Keith (fiddle). Together they have produced a beautiful and well performed holiday classic for years to come. Thanks guys and UP THE REPUBLIC!
