Marah - A Christmas Kind Of Town
A quick road trip over the past two years: In March 2007, I reviewed Dave Chesler's homemade Christmas comp entitled "The Christmas Cheese: Chesler's 2006 Holiday Compilation". While doing a track review, I first came across this group called Marah and their song "Christmas With The Snow": GREAT JUMPIN' ICEBERGS!!! Marah creates a wonderful, contemporary song that's very reminiscent of the Phil Spector "wall of sound" Christmas songs! If their 2005 Christmas album sounds like this, consider it added to the wish list! The next track on Dave's comp was Marah again. This was their skit entitled "Boozing It Up With Friends": Reading the Christmas Reviews review of Marah's CD, they state that several of the tracks are under a minute in length and two feature funny skits / segues like this one... Added to my wish list! During Christmas 2007, I got a $20 gift card to Amazon.com and purchased the entire Christmas CD...
