White 7" Single
Joff Bush and the Bluey Music team proudly present for Christmas a brand-new Bluey single – ‘Verandah Santa’.
Three brand news songs pressed on white 7” vinyl in a gatefold artwork sleeve with exclusive new artwork.
Four brand news songs presented on CD, packaged in special rectangular shaped packaging with exclusive new artwork.
‘Let’s Play Veranda Santa’ is directly from the Bluey episode Verandah Santa and is a truly great representation of an Australian Christmas! It was created using pieces of dialogue and score from the original episode to make sure when you listen to this track you can feel like you’re back in the episode and playing along with the Heelers!
‘Verandah Santa’ is a take on the episode theme, working with Emma Dean and Joe Twist and adding elements played by Camerata - Queensland’s Chamber Orchestra. Composer Joff Bush commented “we wanted to have a fun take on Tchaikovsky’s Christmas classic, ’The Nutcracker’ (one of our favourite pieces) because a fun Christmas needs fun music! We also wanted a 50s Disney-esque sound like some of our favourite Christmas records.”
As well as the title track, the EP also features a brand-new song - ‘I Don’t Have A Chimney’. Joff says “We found ourselves writing the lyrics in the style of Emma’s young Santa-obsessed kids - resulting in many guffaws and grins! We had so much fun writing and recording this EP together.”
