I'm crediting the vocalist Kelly Longmire on this one, though the song is the thing. "Christmastide's Coming Soon" is a new composition from Dan Fergus and Andrew Lidgus (that's Andrew on the piano) and it's Fergus and Lidgus who are making the song available as a free download through their web site. They reason that folks are getting tired of hearing the same old Christmas standards over and over again and so they set about to write a new Christmas standard. There isn't much information on Fergus and Lidgus on ferguslidgus.com, and their Facebook page just says that they write songs. Not much online about Kelly Longmire, either. She may or may not be a singer from Chicago who has done some backup work for R&B singers and done a bit of gospel on the side. May or may not be. Well.... It's a nice song. And it's free.
