A message from Rachael of Cherryade Records:
“It’s the most wonderful time of the year again and, while Christmas, like everything else, is going to look very different this year, it doesn’t mean it can’t still be magical. Unfortunately, for various reasons, we were unable to bring you A Very Cherry Christmas Volume 15 on CD this year. But, to make up for it, we have a mini Christmas stocking stuffed with six musical Christmas crackers from six incredible artists! Our Christmas E.P. will be released exclusively as a download through Bandcamp on Friday 4th December, with all proceeds going to the Music Venue Trust, to help struggling grass roots live music venues.”
