A long time coming, and so very fine…
Chuckie-Boy Records and The Holidays (and our buds at Green Monkey Records) have released a special treat for you...”Big Sexy World”, 9 never-before-heard Classic Holidays songs!
Recorded between 1990-1993, these super-melodic songs capture a moment timeless, clairvoyant, and of a beautiful place that once was, and still is. Naturally, there was video as well, also seen here for the first time…we invite you to get on The Bus with us!
Yes, it’s true.
The Holidays, early 1990’s Seattle Pop-Noir band, are finally releasing their 30-year-overdue debut album “Big Sexy World”.
The Holidays made a colorful splash with their 1990 EP, “Every Day Is A Holiday”, garnering big radio/TV play in Seattle for their song and video “Octopus of Love”. Beatle-esque, with boy/girl harmonies and a monster hook, it was a Summertime Pop Classic.
Next: The Holidays made what would have been their 1st album, “Big Sexy World”. It captured the bands’ knack for killer hooks with a dark twist, while adding a Brass section and some intriguing surprises.
Then—they hit the ‘Pause’ button. Until now. And somehow, this 'Lost' album is coming out at the perfect moment.
“Big Sexy World” is a musical blast from a different time, yet sounds fresh and timeless. And its’ blend of harmony, melody, hope, and optimistic cynicism lands in the ‘World’ of 2022…just right.
