Canadian funk legends Crack of Dawn are serving up some serious soul this Holiday season with their newest single, “It’s Christmas Time”.

Watch and listen here: https://youtu.be/RHTwA0kIoGo

Featuring the same signature velvety tones that have made them Canada’s most celebrated soul act for 40 years and running, the seasonal tribute to Motown is a track packed with everything needed to keep spirits bright.

Written by Crack of Dawn keyboardist Bela Hajmann and saxophonist Alvin Jones, funk-soul enthusiasts and then some are set to be immediately hooked by this effortlessly catchy melody and vintage vibe.

Crack of Dawn were the first black band to be signed to a major label, CBS, after being discovered by Otis Redding’s producer. Their most recent album, Spotlight, features a breathtaking combination of grindingly feel funk a la “Booby Ruby,” guitar and horn-led sunshine soul thanks to the eponymous “Crack of Dawn,” the wah-wah drenched glory of “Somebody’s Watching You,” and their hugely popular and Internationally critically acclaimed single, “Ol’ Skool.”

“It’s Christmas Time” is available now.
