Tom Chaplin - Twelve Tales Of Christmas

Tom Chaplin has announced his second “LP”, a 12-track holiday record titled Twelve Tales of Christmas.

The album will feature 4 covers and 8 original songs and has been recorded over the past three months after Tom finished The Carried By The Wave Tour.

Tom describes the record as “a bit of everything”. There’s nostalgia and the “spirit” of the holidays, as well as sadder themes being an inspiration throughout the record.

Twelve Tales… will feature collaborations between Tom and Fyfe Dangerfield (of The Guillemots and Fyfe Dangerfield), and Fyfe will be performing “multi-layered backing vocals”.

Covers:

Peter Auty (in The Snowman) - Walking in the Air (A/N: Supposedly, this will be a very different take.)
The Pretenders - 2000 Miles
Joni Mitchel - The River
East 17 - Stay Another Day (A/N: This cover will also be quite different.)
