Maple Leaf Christmas Special: EP Reviews

November 29, 2021 by Rich Barnard in Acoustic, Album Reviews, Christmas, Folk, Singer-Songwriter, Traditional

This is the time of year when I’m regularly called upon to make donations to the Scrooge Jar.

So, I am possibly not the best suited to reviewing a pair of Christmas-themed EPs, but these new releases from two of my favourite Canadian singer-songwriters have, I confess, begun to thaw my miserly, humbug-riddled heart.
