The December People’s Rattle & Humbug will breathe new life into Christmas classics for this holiday season on October 12th. The December People perform all newly recorded songs in the style of classic rock legends like U2, Santana, The Who and Boston. Rattle & Humbug is the follow-up release to the December People’s 2001 critically acclaimed “Sounds Like Christmas,” which also won the Indie-Music Award for that year.
Group leader and band founder, Robert Berry is the December People’s lead vocalist and bass player. Robert is best known for his work with Keith Emerson and Carl Palmer of ELP fame, in their band “3.” Gary Pihl is the band’s lead guitarist and has been a member of the band Boston since 1985 and formerly played in the Sammy Hagar band. Mike Vanderhule is the band’s drummer and percussionist and is also currently featured with the band Y & T. Jack Foster plays second guitar and is an internationally renowned solo artist. Last, but not least, is David Medd on keyboards. David is best known as the keyboardist for the Tubes.
Each member of the December People has injected their own flavor into the Rattle & Humbug mix creating holiday music unlike any other. They’ve taken Christmas classics and made them accessible and enjoyable for listeners of all ages. Their contemporary take on each song sheds a whole new light on both the classic rock songs that influenced the music and timeless Christmas carol lyrics. Each song is familiar and yet brand new.
