Jon McDevitt, Releases Seasonal Single 'Father Christmas' Breaking Away From The Christmas Cliche

New York, NY (Top40 Charts) From creating the theme tune to the Channel 5 series 'A Different Life' to selling 2000 unsigned albums with his original band Geist, McDevitt isn't a complete stranger to the music industry. Now the Christmas sing-along 'Father Christmas', due to be released 25th November, blends influences from The Smiths and Dexys Midnight Runners amongst others, to form an easy listen seasonal single.

This Christmas sing-along avoids the common approaches to the genre. Thoughtful lyrics by co-writer Dominic Hudson paint Father Christmas as a figure missing from Christmas, whilst allowing the listener to interpret it as to how or why; these combine with an infectious melody to make a Christmas single that stands out from the crowd

The band consists of multiple talented musicians such as violinist Anna Jenkins who has worked with the likes of Emily Barker, The Unthanks and Frank Turner when he opened the 2012 Olympics.
