Irish singer/songwriter Janet Devlin, who People Magazine claim will “knock your socks off”, ended a successful 2015 with the November 27 release of her December Daze EP on OK! Good Records. The holiday-themed EP, which features a pair of originals (“December Daze”, “Happy Holidays”), two traditional Christmas numbers “(Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas”, “Silent Night”) and a cover of Joni Mitchell’s “River,” is the follow up to the Spring 2015 release of Devlin’s debut album, Running With Scissors.
Capturing an optimism and bliss that only the holiday season can produce, the title track “December Daze” was written during Devlin’s first ever trip to New York City. “I’d gone for a walk in Central Park and it was covered in snow, reminding me of all the classic Christmas films that had been made there,” she remembers of the experience. “Back in my hotel, I sat on the 36th floor with my guitar player, with the view of Times Square in the background, watching people with their woolly hats and oversized coats.”
Joined by a friskier, tongue-in-cheek, “Happy Holidays,” in which Devlin plays drums, percussion, ukulele, glockenspiel and vocal, December Daze’s duo of originals slot in flawlessly against the time honored holiday classics like “Silent Night”, “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas”, and Joni Mitchell’s “River.”
