Holiday warmth and good cheer are in abundance on Putumayo's ode to the acoustic side of Christmas music. Featured on ACOUTSIC CHRISTMAS are ten relaxed seasonal songs that feature laid-back vocals, breezy guitars and gentle rhythms. The album begins with the shuffling neo-folk sound of Mindy Smith's original song “It Really Is (A Wonderful Life),” which is followed up with a playful rendition of “Santa Baby” by Arizona-based band The Sugar Thieves, which bears a smoky, bluesy appeal. Speaking of blues, Leon Redbone's “That Old Christmas Moon” has a touch of bluesy grit melded with jazz and a tin-pan alley sound. The acoustic format really brings out the feeling in “The Christmas Song,” sung with smooth sweetness here by Stacey Kent, and Hem's touching “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” gives the album a sublime closure.
