| Irving Berlin Music Co. Approves 1st remake of “White Christmas” since 1954 |
|
All of us have heard the Christmas classic “White Christmas”, one of the most recorded songs in history, written by Irving Berlin in 1942 and originally recorded by Bing Crosby for the movie Holiday Inn, but not since the Drifters version in 1954 has there been an actual remake of the original song. Well this all changed recently when the Irving Berlin Music Company granted MelloSoundz Productions recording artist J.B. permission to release his version of this holiday classic.
Recorded at MelloSoundz studio in the Atlanta, GA. Suburb of Union City, this remake is a soulful derivative of the original, giving it a contemporary yet still classic feel. J.B. stated “It is truly an honor to have the opportunity to release my interpretation of a true classic. Irving Berlin was one of the greatest writers in American history and I hope through my voice people will have a new found appreciation for his work.” Sure to become a classic on it’s own, J.B. and the team at MelloSoundz Productions hope that this new take on a classic will fill the airwaves and the homes of many for years to come.
