Happy Holidays! I can't believe it is already that time of year again.
I apologize to all of you that back when I released my album Christmas Angel in 2000 on MP3.com, it was only released in low quality (128k MP3). John Jones had the masters, and crazily, we never released a full CD quality version of it. I'm embarrassed Christmas Angel in its low quality form has been on iTunes all these years.
Thankfully, JJ gave me remastered song files earlier this year, and we sent the new and improved files to Big Fish Media and they released it on iTunes Tuesday - you can get it HERE.
In the spirit of Christmas, we've put together the Christmas Angel digital-LP, complete with original artwork, credits, lyrics and CD-quality downloads (iTunes only offers 256k MP3 to its listeners) - for the Emily Richards Indigo Circle members. You can preview it here!
My favorite song on the album is the title track, written in honor of Annie. Listening back to it again these 9 years later, I'm reminded the holidays can be wrought with polarizing difficulty when you've just lost a loved one. "There is a new star, and a new angel, an empty place at the end of the table..." I hope Christmas Angel may give just a little bit of comfort to those who understand what I mean all too deeply. Thank you for your love and support these many years. May music fill your hearts this season, giving you peace and joy.
Always,
~Emily
