About
Sauni's Big Jump's First Christmas EP includes folk-rock arrangements of 5 traditional Christmas songs and 1 original song (First Christmas) by band leader Daryl Holmlund. The album features their arrangement of O Come O Come Emmanuel that won acclaim at the annual Annex Christmas at Old Main show in Boulder, CO, and also showcases the vocal talent of Kristen Andersen, who moved from occasional collaborator to full SBJ member for this recording. Listeners have been known to ask, "What is this awesome Jewish/Russian sounding Christmas music?!" or to spontaneously jump up and dance/clap/shout along with the music. The album also features the work of Nick Tempel on nylon and steel strings, Elle Kirk on Violin, Justin Ebert on Bass, Jon Brummet on drums, and Amelia Carpenter as a guest violinist for the song Fa La La La La.
