    Comes in environmentally friendly recycled cardboard packaging. Norine Braun released her 12th full- length album December Falls last Christmas 2020. The Vancouver Sun Stuart Derdeyn named December Falls as 1 of 5 new seasonal releases worth putting under your tree. J. Ireson says it best that ” blues-rock singer-songwriter Norine Braun has cooked up a Christmas album during her time in quarantine that offers up several swingin' new holiday-tinged tracks and peppers in her rowdy take on some old chestnuts. The veteran songstress' new tracks frame the season in a new way, shirking the traditional style much in the way rock n roll originally came in and rebranded the idea of Christmas by the likes of Brenda Lee and Elvis Presley. December Falls encapsulates the whole period of transition that comes with the new year, not just the day itself. God knows we're all ready for a transition!"

about

Heartbreak and longing at Christmas, gives us the blues when no one wants to share a kiss with us under the mistletoe.

lyrics

MISTLETOE BLUES
Mistletoe is hanging
Mistletoe is hanging down
But you refuse to kiss me
Now bad luck is surely bound
Mistletoe has brought the blues to my corner
Tears are falling on my new red gown

Momma said now daughter
Go do something with your hair
You won’t catch nothing but a cold now little daughter
If you don’t at least pretend to care
You could be a pretty little package
Dressed for Christmas
But you won’t get nothing just sitting there

There’s holly and there’s ivy
I decorated just for you
I made some figgy pudding
I turned on the carols too
But there’s no joy in this cold world
If the reindeer don’t care for you

about

Norine Braun Vancouver, British Columbia

Her signature funky folk-blues sound simply cannot be matched. Best listened to as loud as your neighbours will tolerate. Abortmag

Her music sounds like the union of Nick Cave with Patti Smith & City and Colour deep in the Canadian forests.
MTM

An imaginative display of fine musicianship, potent vocals and heartfelt lyrics, talent like hers doesn't exactly come around too often. Music Emission
