Jamie Cullum Hang Your Lights

Jamie Cullum has today (6) shared the uplifting, jazzy holiday tune “Hang Your Lights” as the latest single from his forthcoming festive album The Pianoman At Christmas.

The song by the multi platinum-selling, multi-instrumentalist combines his original compositional style with an infectious big band sound and suitably Christmassy female vocals. Cullum tweeted that the track is “one of my most favourite things I’ve ever recorded.”

Inspired by Ray Charles and Louis Prima

Says Cullum: “In spite of the absence of good news right now I bring you ‘Hang Your Lights.’ An original Christmas song inspired by the big band electricity of Ray Charles and the groove and energy of Louis Prima. It’s a song I wrote in isolation, brought to life by the genius arranging skills of Tom Richards and played by some of the greatest musicians in the world.

“It was cut live and has a rapturous momentum that is hard to deny,” continues the much-admired pianist. “I loved recording this tune, it’s one of the most joyous bits of music creating I’ve ever been a part of. I hope it brings a little light in this strange and difficult time. Sent with love!”

Producer Wells’ previous credentials include the soundtrack to the smash hit movie The Greatest Showman, an album that enjoyed gargantuan success including spent 28 weeks at No.1 in the UK.
