THE JOSHUA CAIN BAND: Follow it.
SPIRIT OF THE SEASON >>>
The Weekly Volcano has said it many times. The Joshua Cain Band delivers swampy, gospel-inspired roots rock at its best.
The band also delivers toys.
It's true, but not in a delivery truck or Santa situation. They deliver the goods in a more rock star fashion.
"We have released a Christmas song and are donating the proceeds to a charity called Toys For Kids," says singer and bassist Josh Ott.
The band wanted to help kids have a better Christmas, and Toys For Kids is a local charity, which is important to The Joshua Cain Band. The band has a love affair with Tacoma.
"We originally recorded this song for a licensing deal but decided why not use it for good in the city we love," says Ott.
The song is "O Holy Night," which is one of Ott's favorite Christmas songs. He's always wanted to record it.
"I think the message in the song would represent charity well in that it talks about love for our brother, which is what Christmas should embody," he explains.
Arranged, recorded, mixed and mastered in an impressive three-day span by Jason Ott at Grit City Studios, the song is vocal forward with strong harmonies.
The song is also public domain, which means no lawyers around the Christmas table.
Make your way over the river and through the woods to The Joshua Cain Bandcamp page, purchase the song for $1 and help a child have a merry Christmas.
