Christmas in My Heart

Candi Staton

Weathered, soulful vocals meeting lush orchestral arrangements. A late-career holiday record that prioritizes spiritual depth and analog warmth over seasonal kitsch.

October 15, 2009 · Beracah Records

A dignified and soulful reverence that feels both deeply personal and warmly communal.

The way her weathered rasp breaks slightly on the high notes of Silent Night
The slow-burn gospel build of Go Tell It on the Mountain featuring a full choir response
The intimate piano opening of the title track that feels like a private confession
