A very Happy Christmas to you! Wishing you all a special time with family and friends, wherever you are in the world. Every good wish for 2014.

Welcome to winter. The snow has already been falling on both sides of the Atlantic. The season of peace on earth and goodwill to all people approaches. That would indeed be the best Christmas gift of all to see being given around our troubled globe.

On the 10th of December Radio i105.3 releases a fundraising album for KARM (Knoxville Area Rescue Ministry), a charity helping with the homeless that provides shelter and support for those in difficulty.  The album features songs from many of Knoxville’s resident artists, and also includes a new recording of ‘In The Bleak Midwinter’ by David Clifton. We’ll post the track on his home page, and all income from sales will be given to KARMS.  We will also give you a link to the full album download and purchase page, and keep you updated with other events as December rolls on.

It is the season of the changing leaves, Guy Fawkes, Thanksgiving in the USA, and the time of looking forward to Advent and Christmas. And here is the news…

Violinist Bethany Hankins has added the last of her overdubs to Charlotte Parmiter’s folk songs album, and so mixing will soon be starting.

  Ellice and her guitarist Matt were invited to play a live set on BBC Radio’s Introducing series, and performed a spellbinding set which drew an enthusiastic response from the packed house. Keep up to date with future live shows on her Facebook page, and listen out for her on the radio. She has been getting airplay in both the UK and the USA.

Sam Hill Jr. is busy preparing for his forthcoming concerts and gigs across the UK, and is getting great reviews for his new album. If you don’t have it yet, head on over to his page and the link to his website and online store. You won’t be disappointed.

Knoxville’s i105.3 WFIV Radio is releasing a fundraising CD for Knoxville Area Rescue Ministries, organised by presenter Cullen Keyhoe. KARM is a charity working with Knoxville’s homeless community. There are excellent performances and recordings from many in the East Tennessee music scene, and all sales and royalties will be given to the charity. David Clifton has re-recorded the Christmas Carol ‘In The Bleak Mid-Winter’ to contribute to the playlist, and we will add this new version to David’s page, with all proceeds being given to KARMS.
