And his latest Christmas CD is terrific! Lot's of new songs (i.e. new versions of some old standbys) and Sweet Gingerbread Man from last year . Humor, warmth, great arrangements (with real musicians playing real instruments), the true, light and delightful voice of Jessica Martin and the one-and-only Mark Steyn, who gets better and better all the time.
Mark has always been easy to listen to, but he's really beginning to sound like a singer, with good phrasing, breath control and even one sustained high note that led him to say he wanted to oxygen tent for Christmas.
I think the version of Marshmellow World is a new one---and it's wonderful.
What a pleasure to listen to as I remember some friends and family who live far away and get a few Christmas cards written.
You can order Making Spirits Bright here.
Enjoy!
