Bailey Tomkinson’s most recent single in the vast universe of holiday music, “Christmas for Cowboys,” is a captivating excursion through joyful music. This beautiful song offers a fresh perspective on Christmas favourites by skilfully fusing nostalgic sentiments with contemporary characteristics.
Bailey’s enticing vocals instantly take centre stage as the acoustic guitar vibrates with crisp resonance from the very first note. The laid-back, earthy mood of this music immediately draws listeners in for an immersive experience where pop, surf-rock, and country/folk merge seamlessly.
Her musical inspiration is drawn from John Denver while incorporating the seaside vibes of St Ives, Kernowfornia into her interpretation of “Christmas for Cowboys”, resulting in an innovative and captivating performance that conveys the true spirit of winter festivities.
Bailey attributes her love of John Denver’s music to her grandfather, who used to listen to old recordings with her during our weekly listening sessions. “Recording ‘Christmas for Cowboys’ felt like a trip down memory lane. I like that this is a bit of an underplayed song really, it never broke the top 50 in the US and didn’t really chart in the UK, so not that many people know it, and seeing as we all get a bit fed up of hearing the same songs every Christmas, a new/old Christmas classic felt like the ideal present.”
Whether you’ve been a fan of Bailey Tomkinson’s music for a long time or not, “Christmas for Cowboys” is a timeless classic that, in her own unique style, embodies the true spirit of the winter holidays and provides an enjoyable escape from standard holiday music. Add this magnificent song to your repertoire to celebrate everything that makes Christmas so wonderful. Both your ears and your spirits will appreciate you.
