I changed the title of this thread to “Post your Christmas covers”, because I think I failed to clearly explain what I had in mind for this thread when I started it.
I really meant for us to have some fun and share our covers of Christmas songs (as I think I expressed in my original post). I didn’t mean for it to be a thread about which Christmas songs are our favorites, or for links to YouTube videos.
So, let’s have some fun and post our Christmas covers here.

I’m not into christmas-things at all (don’t understand this, really) but it’s nice you splitted that from the “normal” cover thread, @PamPurrs , I’m glad you did.

I posted this in the regular thread on covers and then was pointed here - oops! :slight_smile:

I just recorded a version of Deck the halls - let me know what you think - been away from the forum for a while - have some catching up to do.
I got a book for piano and sax, to help me set up some duets with my son - Jr in high school who plays alto sax. I used the bass clef piano line and also added some bass solo melody into the arrangement. I have a scarlet 2/2 and a beat buddy, so I picked out a decent beat, added in the drum fills and set that up as one track. Put down the bass line, and then had my son add the sax in with a mic that I have - usually used for my bass lessons over zoom. I recorded with garageband and decided do use a fuzz effect on the bass

Hi, everyone! I’m loving this thread. I just started playing in September and I’m about 3/4 of the way through the course. I switched gears to learning/playing (and learning to play, haha) mostly holiday tunes because my husband and I decided to host a holiday block party featuring a band of our friends (with me on bass!). We played a 10-song set twice and it was my first time playing in front of people and was a lot of fun (and kind of a sloppy mess but we had a good time!). I’m so grateful for this course because it NEVER would have happened without it.

Here’s Feliz Navidad which was definitely one of the most fun ones we did. Unfortunately I’m behind the pole in this angle. :crazy_face: Happy Holidays from El Cerrito, CA!

Thanks, Mike! I kept trying that but was getting an error message earlier - maybe it was a phone glitch since it’s working now. Appreciate the clarity and glad to have it working!
