Canadian singer-songwriter Rich Chambers stumbles upon his musical epiphany years after setting it aside, and the world can be thankful for it.
The Vancouver-based Christmas rocker dives straight into his discography with the release of his topical album ‘Santa’s Rockin’ Band’ — a feel-good classic rock-driven collection of Christmas singles. Of all the tunes comprising the album, Chambers shares with his audience ‘It’s Christmas Time (All Over The World)’. Already possessing the ability to usher in the sense of yuletide with the jangling bells, the track borrows and odes musical allegiances to some of the world’s timeless Christmas numbers, replete with the sense of togetherness and camaraderie that the track posits. Chambers does not attempt to bring in complex arrangements to highlight the Christmas spirit, but lays bare a simple scattering of electric guitar fills and lively percussive elements, replete with an increasingly infectious stadium rock vocal performance. All blanketed over with an animated music video to complement the vibe, Rich Chambers’ ‘It’s Christmas Time (All Over The World)’ remains on our Christmas playlists this year, and should be on yours too.
