about

It’s been six long years since Gannon’s Canon was released. Six long years of the people chanting: “When are you going to do another Christmas record? When, when, when?” Well, I’m tired of the chanting, and I’m tired of the noise, and I just want to be left alone, and so I give to you, fair and noble citizens of Planet Earth…..

ANOTHER CHRISTMAS RECORD!

These songs were written over the past four years and recorded in Portland, Oregon and Ridley Park, Pennsylvania. My thanks to Steve for his sonic engineering prowess, JB and Dominic for their musical stylings, Jon for mastering, my family and friends for their support, and my sweetheart Erin for…well…everything.

Warmly,
John
