Exactly a month ago, I posted this video on the front page because I was very impressed. "O Holy Night" is my favorite and Marc Martel does a beautiful version. Martel, who used to be in the group Downhere, released his Christmas EP on November 19. You can find the details in our earlier piece (really don't want to repeat myself). But, for a limited time, you can download this gorgeous rendition of "O Holy Night" FREE from the good folks at New Release Today (formerly New Release Tuesday). New Release Today has limited time free downloads of current CCM releases all year long. Being as we're in the Christmas season, probably a good idea to check over there every once in a while (in fact, I see they've just posted a cut from the new J.J. Heller Christmas album). The free download of Marc Martel's "O Holy Night" "expires" on December 10.

A Christian Folk Rock artist, Matt Jackson was based in Florida at last report (previously in Georgia). The digital-only Christmas EP "Love Came Down At Christmas" was something he released last year. His fanbase was very pleased with it, but a lot of folks didn't even know it was out there (yep, I missed it too). So, to get the music to others less familiar with his music, Matt has made "Love Came Down At Christmas" available from Noisetrade (tips welcome). The EP did have a sixth track, "The Christmas Story", which appears to be a spoken word piece. If you're a completist, you can grab the track at iTunes. As enjoyable as the rest of the set is, the star of the show has to be the rockin' opening track, "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen/We Three Kings". At least for me. You are, of course, free to find your own favorite.
