NEW format!
USB Music Card with "Christmas On The Moon" single plus the Live From The West Pole album and
album covers, liner notes. ...Billionaires in Space? An ever-warming planet? Holidays approaching too fast? Where's this all headed?
"Christmas On The Moon!" - The Christmas Jug Band explores the rocket-fueled elitist escapism mindset... is an all-acoustic send-up
of the newfound elitist escapism mindset and blends Americana, roots-rock, gospel, Moog Theremin synth, rich acoustic violin
and piano and more. Perhaps it's all a metaphor for the likely mixed emotions of actually leaving Terra Firma.
Plus the most recent album and extras included.
This USB device plays in most computers & USB-ready cars.
Manufactured in the USA. Comes with a black velvet bag.
On Sale!
