2x JUNO Nominees Alex Bird & The Jazz Mavericks release 10 brand new Christmas songs for the holiday season. Not only recorded live-off-the-floor, this album was recorded without the use of headphones or studio monitors, a throwback to the early days of recording, adding some extra warmth to these new offerings.
Over the past few years, Alex Bird has become one of the biggest names on the Canadian jazz scene & abroad, releasing 4 original albums in that time, with his last two going to the JUNO Awards for “Best Vocal Jazz” (2022 & 2024)
Bird was adopted from Romania and came to Canada at 6 weeks old. He was taken to jazz clubs in downtown Toronto at the age of 2 and grew up seeing & meeting artists like Tony Bennett, Oscar Peterson, Diana Krall, Ray Charles & Mel Tormé.
