The Essential Advent Calendar: December 10 – The Mighty Lemon Drops’ David Newton’s New Festive Single, ‘Winter Tragedy’, Out Today

The Mighty Lemon Drops guitarist/songwriter David Newton has today released a new seasonal single, as David Newton & Thee Mighty Angels, ‘Winter Tragedy’. An upbeat sounding, yet darkly twisted ‘bah humbug’ holiday tale, the track comes with a video directed by Joel Tabbush, and features members of The Little Ones, The Blood Arm, Bad Girlfriend, VPL, Kissing Tigers and Faraway Beaches performing in a snow storm in sunny California.

Candlebox – ‘Riptide’

Seattle Washington band Candlebox have helped shaped the direction of contemporary music, from their earliest days when they were a part of a group of courageous PNW artists, who identified the relationship between classic rock, metal, punk, blues, and experimental music. Just like their grunge and alt-rock peers, they were rewarded with massive worldwide success: hit singles and albums (including their quadruple-platinum self-titled debut), global tours, and a permanent place in the hearts of millions. That’s a vital part of the Candlebox story, and always will be.
