Tom Dyer - T'was The Night Before Christmas

from A Green Monkey Christmas For Martians Up On Mars by Green Monkey Christmas

/

about

Music by Tom.

This musical version of Clement Clarke Moore’s 1823 poem was inspired by the 7th chords of The Kinks’ “Sunny Afternoon” which The True Olympians learned for our album debut show this fall. I played everything on this, and it was a fun mess to make. This is the second (or third) GMR take on this holiday favorite. Gary Heffern did a fantastic version on our 2011 Xmas Comp It Crawled Down the Chimney. More recently (a year or three ago), Joe Ross played me his idea for T’was, which I promptly forgot about (more about that below). Also available on Tom & Kat’s Excellent Christmas Adventure!
