Kaeli Earle and Dillon Greenberg are here to take us back to the 1950s and 1990s with their enchanting EP, Merry Christmas, Lucy. If the icons Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, the Andrews Sisters, and even Destiny’s Child strike a chord with you, we highly recommend listening to all 5 tracks of Merry Christmas, Lucy.
This 5-track Merry Christmas, Lucy showcases the duo’s exceptional vocal harmonies, blending retro and contemporary sensibilities to create a festive and enchanting musical journey. The EP opens with the title track, “Merry Christmas, Lucy,” also a single released on November 24. The song is a joyful celebration of resilience and hope inspired by Dillon’s cat, Lucy, who defied all odds and made a full recovery. The upbeat piano and soulful backing vocals add a festive touch, making it a heartwarming ode to the holiday spirit.
“I’ll Be Home for Christmas” stands out for me personally, with its exquisite retro crooning and belting, with vibrato vocals that evoke a warm, operatic style. The singers and producers capture the sweet longing and anticipation during the holiday season. The track beautifully and contemporarily renders the classic sound of the 1950s.
Closing the EP is the timeless classic, “Silent Night,” presented with guitar strumming and sonorous soprano vocals. The song is delivered with a gentle touch reminiscent of a lullaby. Kaeli and Dillon conclude Merry Christmas, Lucy, with a calming serenity.
Merry Christmas, Lucy by Kaeli Earle and Dillon Greenberg is a captivating and heartwarming EP that captures the essence of the holiday season.
