First-rate musicianship, outstanding songs, and inspired performance all create a musical experience that is bound to kindle the holiday spirit. From the 40’s swing-styled title track to the contemporary, groove-oriented “Christmas, Christmas,” The Holiday’s On! sets the stage for a joyous holiday season. “Christmas Truce of 1914” talks about the astonishing cease-fire on Christmas Eve in 1914 between rival soldiers in World War I. The up-tempo, “It’s A Brand New Year With You” showcases Joyce’s fluid straight-ahead jazz chops while “Winter Waltz” is a beautiful acoustic solo guitar piece enhanced by Wagner’s stunning production. “It’s Feeling Like Christmas,” featuring Joyce’s warm, heartfelt vocals, seems destined to become a holiday classic. The album closes with “Snow Is Falling” - a sweet holiday love song.
