Restless Heart
Sep 8, 2013

This holiday season, country music group Restless Heart will deck the halls with brand new Christmas music. Their Red River Entertainment album will be called "A Restless Heart Christmas" and be available on Tuesday, October 29th.
"We recorded some of our favorite Christmas standards like 'O Holy Night,' 'Jingle Bell Rock,' and 'Angels We Have Heard On High'," said Restless Heart's John Dittrich. "We also included 'Silent Night' which we recorded a cappella with a 'Take 6' style arrangement."
The group's Dave Innis added, "In addition to new arrangements of classic Christmas standards, we also included a couple of brand new songs. 'Season of Harmony' sets the tone for the album and 'Santa's Prayer,' is about the true meaning of Christmas being overshadowed by commerciality."
Bassist Paul Gregg said, "Santa's Prayer was written by some dear friends of mine, one of whom is no longer with us. From the first time I heard it, to the first time we played it live, I knew we had something very special."
Restless Heart lead singer Larry Stewart confessed, "Christmas is my favorite holiday. It's hard to believe that we didn't do this album earlier in our career. But it's pretty cool that we can release our first Christmas album on our 30th anniversary!"
The ten-track album will include eight holiday classics and two previously unreleased songs as follows:
- Season of Harmony (new song)
- Tennessee Christmas
- O Holy Night
- Old Toy Trains
- Silent Night
- Jingle Bell Rock
- Angels We Have Heard On High
- Little Drummer Boy
- The Christmas Song
- Santa's Prayer (new song)
