Little Big Town - The Christmas Record (Deluxe)

58 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!!

Stream The Christmas Record (Deluxe) here (Spotify)

I love it when artists return to Christmas projects, proving that their seasonal selection box of songs is for life, not just the year it was released. Little Big Town have revisited their (hopefully inaugural) Christmas record (called The Christmas Record) to add one new song to the mix. That song is one of their most lovely - The Innkeeper focuses on the person most famous for being solution focused on that starry night, rather than just saying there is no room. It is a beautiful, acoustic guitar-vocal production that tells the story of the birth of Christ from the titular Innkeeper's perspective - exploring his complex emotions and growing awe. There's reverence and humility to both the lyrics and the singing, creating an intimate, insightful level of melodic prose that paints a vivid picture. Sometimes songs don't need all the whistles and bells, they can deliver an impactful narrative just through embracing the quiet calm; that's exactly what happens here - a fine new finale to Little Big Town's The Christmas Record.
