I first wrote the melody as a jig in 2019, but soon realised that if I slowed it down, I could put some words to it. At it’s new tempo it sounded quite carol-like. So I wrote a Christmas carol about baby Jesus.Late in 2021, I went to the Studio to lay down some ideas for the song as a possible future Christmas release. However, I felt that it was important to keep the original Jig element intact. As it was a different tempo, we recorded it as two separate parts to be expertly spliced together by my producer at the end.At 5m:23s the full track is a little too long for radio, so an edit was also made without the jig.
The single is now available to download from Robert George Fox’s Shop – A day earlier than its official release date! Additional merch will be added in due course.
In addition to Robert on Main vocals and Acoustic Guitar, the single features some of the local musicians who he has been fortunate to work with on the Lancashire Gig Scene…
