This guy is so funny. This summer, when he was touring, he would play christmas songs and shit in the middle of the show and tell the audience "Merry Christmas!" (In July).
Anyways, apparently he recorded an entire Christmas album around the time, and you can preview 5 songs on his webpage. His voice sounds fucking incredible, I don't know what they're doing too him but the kool-aid must be working. The harmonies are great, the arrangements and productions are Classic Brian Wilson. Great album so far... I like the surf version of "We Wish You A Merry Christmas", and Brian singing falsetto again at the end of "Noel".
Also, he ended up donating 200 grand to the hurricane relief funds, matching the 200 grand donated by members of his webpage... he promised them if they would donate 100 bucks, he'd match it, and call them on the phone, lol. The stories are hilarious, he'd call people, they wouldn't believe it was him, and he'd hang up, then call back later. Silly stupid shit like that.
Check it out!
