No Bah Humbug with ccMixter's New Holiday Album "Season of "Gratitude"

The newest ccMixter release, Season of Gratitude, is now available on iTunes, Amazon and TuneTrack. This winter-holiday double-album is anything but traditional and has been called "a breath of fresh winter air for listeners weary of the same holiday tunes year after year."

The Season of Gratitude double album is a curation of the tracks from the ccMixter Gift of Song remix event of winter 2012, re-mastered by ccMixter artist Copperhead for optimum sound quality. The double album genre hops into pop, rock, electronica, funk, reggae, punk, and everything in between, and yet the collection is one enjoyable, cohesive listen.

Season of Gratitude A Sides and B Sides are both available on iTunes and Amazon.

• iTunes Season of Gratitude A Sides
• iTunes Season of Gratitude B Sides
• Amazon Season of Gratitude A Sides
• Amazon Season of Gratitude B Sides

For Green Room supporters of ccMixter on TuneTrack, Season of Gratitude A Sides and B Sides, and their accompanying artbooks, are available for download in the highest quality form. Blue Room Supporters will receive a double-album physical CD printed with soy-inks on 100% recycled cardstock with biodegradable shrink-wrap.

The Season of Gratitude double CD is also available at select locations in the Los Angeles area.
