I caught this joint in an email from Melissa Czarnik (one of the coolest people I've ever met that I never met in person). Czarnik performed "Oh Come All Ye Faithful" with the Eric Mire Band down at WMSE 91.7 FM (Milwaukee) as part of a 12 song Christmas album sponsored by ThirdCoast Digest and WMSE.
"Poet/emcee Melissa Czarnik often performs live with the Eric Mire Band, a jazz-hip hop group, to blend Czarnik’s heartfelt and punchy lyrics with the bands funky and soulful rhythms. They were partners in our holiday song project, and the result is “O Come All Ye Faithful” as it’s never been heard before. The band comprises guitarist Eric Mire on guitar, Chip Baily (drums), Brad Bloom (sax), Don Bradshaw (Latin percussion) and Maurice Cotton (keys/vocals)."
