"A Nog and a Snog (In the Mood)"

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Dec 7, 2015

Drunk on Christmas cheer, not to mention gin and champagne, Shilohs frontman Johnny Payne has gifted us a brand new holiday tune modelled after holiday classics from crooners like Bing and Ol' Blue Eyes. Considering it's cold outside, you can cozy up to his "A Nog and a Snog (In the Mood)" from the comfort of your living room right now.

Payne pushes his pipes into vintage jazz territory, explaining quite smoothly how December straight up turns his frown upside down. Though he sings about walking through snowy town squares with a tweet-happy songbird by his side, Payne is further supported by piano, brushed drums, movie music strings and a piping hot sax solo.
