      Description hide

      We set out to make an intimate holiday album inspired by love and gratitude for family and friends, evoking the spirit of the season. We’ve always loved the Christmas recordings of the 50’s as interpreted by singers such as Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, Rosemary Clooney, and Mel Torme. And we always love to give standards a twist by using the Brazilian rhythms of samba, bossa nova, samba canção, (plus a waltz or two).

      We hope you enjoy the acoustic warmth of these guitar-driven arrangements. All but three of the songs are Christmas standards: one exception is from Brazil; another is from the King Family Christmas album (distant Driggs cousins!), and an original song we wrote while recording holiday music.

      It was a pleasure to work with some of the best Brazilian and jazz musicians on the planet, all of them our friends who feel like family. We are so grateful for their artistry and collaboration. And it’s a dream to have our daughter, Luisa, featured on the album as well. It’s our gift to you this holiday season to enjoy with your family and friends.

      —Happy Holidays, Pamela and Romero
