Tenth Avenue North to release Christmas album in November
ONE OF CCM's most popular acts Tenth Avenue North will be releasing on 10th November an album described as a "unique concept album - a musical walk through the last 100 years of Christmas music with each song featuring a different decade starting in the 1920s all the way to present day." 'Decade The Halls Vol 1' is being released by Remade Records. Said the group's Mike Donehey, "We couldn't decide what era to emulate when recording this album. There's so many beautiful Christmas songs that span so many decades and genres, we decided to do all of them. Also we wanted to make something that might actually hold our attention. It's easy to get bored with an album, particularly a Christmas record when you're already familiar with so many of the songs. We feel this keeps the listener engaged and full of wonder. What's the next song gonna sound like?"
