Hi folks.

Here is a quick guide to Bongo Beat Christmas music.

Dave Rave & Rick Andrew were the creative duo behind The Shakers, a wildly successful 80s power pop-a-billy roots rock outfit based in Hamilton but making waves in the UK, France, and beyond. Dave & Rick are always collaborating musically and have finally collected all the special Christmas songs they've recorded over the years but only ever given to friends and family on private recordings - now they're available to all with special appearances by Lori Yates, Joe Mannix, Kate Shrock and others!

Greg Fraser (writer/guitarist/vocals) and Stevie Skreebs (bass/vocals) are another duo who have maintained a friendship over the years and best known as part of Canadian 80s hair metal stalwarts Brighton Rock. These days they have recruited powerhouse drummer Phil Epp to re-emerge as Fraze Gang. Check out their Christmas track, "Christmas in Canada" here:
