One of our favourite indie labels Little Red Rabbit Records are showing their appreciation for all the goodwill shown to the label throughout 2011. The label has put together a special Christmas compilation, ‘SEASONALIA’, available now as a free download.

Many of the artists have recorded new songs or given an insight into their next record with a demo/draft version. From a stunning chamber-folk take on ‘In The Bleak Midwinter’ from Samson & Delilah to the relaxed west coast soloing that closes Fuzzy Lights’ ‘Another Safe Place’, this compilation is the perfect winter warmer to keep you company over the snowy season.
