"Too Many Santas" Music Video
“Too Many Santas” from Maxwell, Miranda, Parsley’s original holiday album “Catskill Christmas” – available now.
‘Twas the end of the summer
and soon to be fall
When three tipsy minstrels
did hear a faint call
Whistling o’er mountain
and through the dark wood
A whisper of winter
Done blew through the ‘hood
They were several pints low
And searching for merry
Each knee deep in debt
a mortgage to carry
They tried to be cheery
despite the foreboding
But it’s hard for a minstrel
(‘cuz illegal downloading)
Now Miranda was humming
and clearing the dishes
Whilst Parsley was rolling
and rhyming up wishes
Good Maxwell sat fishing
through a wee bowl of candy
When “Screw it!” he chimed
and uncorked the brandy…
Thinking it a wise investment of time, our three kings spent a few days one summer recording a Christmas EP. They delighted in jingle bells and BBQ, while taking shelter from the usual dark and complicated matter from which their songs usually spring, and frolicked in baubles, holiday weight gain and the loveliest lie ever told. This unsurprisingly became a summer tradition of theirs, and three years later, an album was born in a puff of smoke, under the brightest of stars.

Lucky charm/siren/snow blower & Motor City refugee, Holly Miranda once spent an underage Christmas Eve at the high roller’s table in Vegas with James Caan. Upon running out of Jimmy’s chips and magic dust, they jetted over to catch Styx at Circus Circus.
