Remember “We Are the Junction“? Two years later, West Seattle musicians have joined forces for another holiday collection: “Tinselitis: A West Seattle Christmas Album.” And this time .. it’s free, and “family-friendly”! You can download the songs on this page of the Feedback Lounge website. Each one is sponsored by a different local venue (besides The Feedback, sponsors include Beveridge Place Pub, Big Al Brewing, The Bridge, Company, Easy Street Records, Löcöl Barley and Vine, Mission, Shadowland, and West 5). Follow the link for the artist/song list – we just previewed them and already have faves, but you can discover them for yourself. Want to read the official news release? Click ahead:

A follow-up to 2009’s WE ARE THE JUNCTION West Seattle holiday album, TINSELITIS: A WEST SEATTLE CHRISTMAS ALBUM continues in the tradition of bringing together West Side musicians and friends to represent our vastly talented community and to celebrate the holiday season in a way that’s as unique as West Seattle itself.

A family-friendly collection of original (and one classic) holiday songs, TINSELITIS: A WEST SEATTLE CHRISTMAS ALBUM, is being given away…FOR FREE! Visit the Feedback Lounge website and click the album cover – we have a web page set up for the entire project, with information on the contributing West Seattle musicians. It’s here you can download each song for no cost whatsoever.

“It’s a Christmas present to all of West Seattle,” says album coordinator/Feedback Lounge co-owner, Jeff Gilbert, who also designed the album cover. “The musicians in this community are extremely talented and their songs will surprise you – mostly because there’s not a naughty word in any of it, just nice.”

This community project is presented by The Feedback Lounge, Shadowland, Mission, West 5, Locöl Barley & Vine, The Bridge, Beveridge Place Pub, Easy Street Records, Big Al Brewing and Company.

Our customary disclosure: Feedback Lounge is a WSB sponsor.
