Laish’s version of Silent night takes the familiar, peaceful tune and juxtaposes it with lyrics depicting an unsettling urban Christmas. Add to that frontman Daniel Green’s affecting vocals and building, stirring orchestration and you’ve got a Christmas anthem for the disillusioned city-dweller.
Danny composed and recorded this song for For Folk’s Sake It’s Christmas 2013, which also features music from Stornoway, Alessi’s Ark and Worry Dolls.
