Sun Cru - This Winter: radio play, the light, the dark, gratitude

Recently, our beloved yuletide compilation — Sun Cru This Winter — was lauded by Keith Hadad of Record Crates United and featured severally on the radio version of that same fine institution. The great Ryan Emmett of the Agave Party radio broadcast also played multiple tracks from This Winter. It's always a joy when devotees and practitioners of that caliber take an interest in our artists' efforts, especially at this time of year when music is so crucial in expressing the big feelings we all have about the light and the dark — and the hope and promise of rebirth to come.

There's still time to nestle deep into the yuletide spirit with Sun Cru This Winter. The album is available for free (or pay what you will) and on CD, although the CDs are nearly sold out. Thanks to everyone who has snagged a copy so far!

Haven't checked out the comp yet? It has performances by Little Wings, Brass Clouds, Dave Heumann, Beast & Bird, Wes Tirey, The Peel, Emily Troedson, Little H Collective, and Alex Homan. There's really no other Saturnalia Solstice Yuletide Fest of Lights Christmas compilation like it. These tunes are built to last a hundred years, probably more.

So give it some play in your household and let the heavy and light feelings intertwine and flow. We wish you a joyful Yuletide, Happy Hanukkah, and Merry Christmas!
