Little Drummer Boy

Dec 23, 2019

Behold this larger-than-life rendition of “The Little Drummer Boy”, featuring the bass and vocal performance of David Allen Moss, Evergreen’s Chief Creative Officer. Moss is joined by bandmate and bombastic drummer, Russ Herbert – both members of Cleveland’s iconoclastic post rock duo, MOSSOM. The arrangement captures the spirit of believing and a story of personal pilgrimage, in a tribute befitting of the journeys we each take in our own quest for peace.
