American Hi-Fi and MxPx frontman Mike Herrera teamed up to bring fans a punk-pop-rock version of the beloved “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home).”
Stacy Jones of the alternative band American Hi-Fi and punk-pop-rocker Mike Herrera of MxPx joined forces this holiday season. The result is a new version of the classic tune “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home).” Those who like a little edge to their holiday will enjoy this track. It successfully combines the song’s spirit with a modern rock attitude.
Jones met Herrera while taking part in his podcast, “Mike Herrera Hour.” The pair subsequently discussed a potential collaboration. Not long after, American Hi-Fi invited Herrera to join them on this holiday single. All parties involved were interested in leaving their mark on this well-known tune and got to work.
The first few seconds of this track tell listeners everything they need to know. Christmas bells ring in the background, while Herrera’s voice gives punk fans an immediate nod. Once the instrumentation fully enters, “Christmas” finds a balance point between punk, rock and chipper holiday sensibilities. Fast percussion and wailing guitars mark this piece, while it seems clear these gentlemen are just having a good time.
Fans looking for true punk grit will be disappointed in this track. Similarly, those traditionalists who want their Christmas songs sweet and shiny will not take to this rendition. However, the vast majority of Christmas-celebrating rock-lovers will find this a well-blended tune for their holiday playlists.
