Editorial Reviews

LISTED BY USA TODAY, NEWSDAY.COM, THE MINNEAPOLIS STAR-TRIBUNE AND THE GRAND RAPIDS PRESS AS ONE OF THE TOP HOLIDAY ALBUMS OF THE YEAR. "A Very Joma Christmas", an indie rock and pop holiday sampler from New York City's Joma label, was greeted with rave reviews upon its release. A collection of both original and classic holiday songs, "A Very Joma Christmas" is a compilation from up and coming artists from New York City's vibrant indie music scene. Inspired by artists as diverse as The Beatles, Bob Marley, Amy Winehouse, Radiohead, Pink Floyd, the Beach Boys and Nat King Cole, "A Very Joma Christmas" was listed as one of the Top 5 holiday albums of the year by the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, who called it "December's freshest sounding disc" with songs that "warm like eggnog" and are "welcome little gifts". USA Today agreed, comparing "A Very Joma Christmas" with some of the bestselling holiday albums of all time, stating "fans of holiday classics like Phil Spector's 'A Christmas Gift For You' and 'The Beach Boys' Christmas Album' would do well to seek out this collection of New York area indie-acts," noting its "charming arrangments" and "winning originals". The Grand Rapids Press described "A Very Joma Christmas" as "joyous", with songs that "pack a surprisingly infectious, pop-laced sort of holiday punch." And the influential Indie Music Database called "A Very Joma Christmas" "another perfect stocking stuffer to add to the list."
