Christmas is here, friends, and with it the inter-week break as we close out 2016 and head into 2017. In keeping with tradition, I want to share with you the Christmas 2016 mixtape I made for Ray Ray, who is the best gift any man could have ever asked for in his life.
This one’s titled, “Hallellurrr!” It’s a reference to our trip to North Carolina earlier this year for the wedding of two very dear friends, Alex and Tatum Albertine. During the visit we spent time with Mr. Joshua Corbett, a triple threat of a man who can wow you with his charm, humor and photography. Mix Josh with the hospitality of the south and, well, I do declare you’ll find yourself shouting, “Hallellurr!”
A perfect response for the miracle at Christmas, don’t you think? Merry Christmas and Happy 2017.
(And yes, the last track and the image above are nods to the year’s high water mark. Still celebrating.)
