Cody Cannon Singing Robert Earl Keen’s ‘Merry Christmas From the Family’ Gets Us in The Holiday Spirit
Let's get real for a moment. No one is going to sing "Silent Night" in concert. Not at a honky tonk concert anyway. Don't get us wrong, it's a good song and all, super Christmas-sy, but a real downer at a live show.
Robert Earl Keen's "Merry Christmas From the Family" on the other hand, it's a game changer.
Do y'all remember when Cody Cannon of Whiskey Myers covered the Texas-Christmas standard during an acoustic set to perfection last year? Big shout out to Jordan Alker for capturing it and being thoughtful enough to post this bad boy on YouTube for all of us to enjoy.
Merry Christmas, y'all
