Watch the video premiere of Phoebe_Hunt's DecemberAgain
"December Again" has been waiting a while to get into Phoebe Hunt & the Gatherers' musical stocking.
The Nashville singer-songwriter wrote the jaunty, piano-led tune, premiering exclusively below, almost a decade ago, on an early December night when she was living in Austin and sitting in a coffee shop, waiting for her then-boyfriend's set to start at the Continental Club. "I was sitting there journaling a little and thinking about what this time of year is about and this little ditty came into my mind," Hunt tells Billboard.
Hunt was never satisfied that the song was complete until she traveled to the Middle East and Africa during 2017 with the Music Abroad Program. After playing in Jordan the troupe made a short pilgrimage to Jerusalem, which inspired a new verse that declares "feel the glory and Hallelujah of the holy land's mysteries/Let the music sink right through ya/Sinking down until you find your peace.
With "December Again" out on Dec. 6, Hunt plays to release a new holiday song every year. "That's what this time is about -- celebrating music and singing and raising our voices and bringing our light into the room with all of our heart," she says.Neither One of Us Is Wrong 's planned April 10 release. In addition to the music, recorded in Brooklyn and Nashville, Hunt set up the crowd-funded project as "a visual album" with a video to accompany each of the album's songs -- including the already released "Baba Vanga" and "November." "The album is about the space in between -- right and wrong, left and right, up and down. It's a visceral and experiential space and I wanted to illustrate it as well," Hunt says.
