Description

Merry Christmas! This week I'm chatting with James Hill and Anne Janelle about their terrific new festive album, The Midnight Clear.

We also discuss:

• What it's like to write and record an album with your significant other
• The importance of Christmas music in today's increasingly fragmented society
• The lengthy incubation period for so many creative projects
• Has 2023 been a good year for them
• Plans for 2024
• Christmas traditions
• Touring with a full orchestra
• Balancing the ukulele against an orchestra - how?!

And lots, lots more.
