Heres something to help set the festive mood, a new Christmas single from Irish duo The Lost Brothers, featuring members of The Frames and more... Little Angel is offered as a free download but the band ask that people make a donation to a childrens charity of their choice this Christmas or purchase the digital single from any good download stores with 100% of profit going to UNICEF (unicef.org.uk). Little Angel started seven years ago as a rough demo recorded in an attic in Portland, Oregon. The song lived in a drawer with The Lost Brothers archives until inspiration hit earlier this year while crossing the Irish Sea during a rocky winter storm. Out came the guitars and the remaining verses and choruses were written in one sitting. To record the song California native Sean Coleman, now living in Dublin, was called in to produce at Gavin Glasss Orphan Studios. Some of Dublins stellar musicians were recruited to record the song with sessions featuring The Frames (Official) Graham Hopkins on drums, Michael Buckley and Ronan Dooney from Glen Hansards band arranging the brass, bass is played by Keith Farell and The Lost Brothers on vocals and guitars. A rich musical friendship lay at the roots of the recording as The Lost Brothers had toured with some of these players across the US when supporting Glen Hansard on tour. The digital single includes second track St Christopher, a cosmic Christmas ballad written and recorded in the Lost Brothers spiritual home of Liverpool. Produced by Domino recording artist Bill Ryder-Jones (The Coral), the song features special guest Drew McConnell (Babyshambles, Fionn Regan) on bass guitar and Ryder-Jones on piano. The 2-track single will be available in download stores next week. Meanwhile, you can download Little Angel for free here: https://soundcloud/lojinx/the-lost-brothers-little-angel
