The Mavericks - Hey Merry Christmas

Hey! Merry Christmas! Includes seasonal favorites - Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) and Happy Holiday - the group also came together to write eight original tracks for the album. They settled on a selection of songs that emulate the holiday's festive nature - with the uptempo, infectious Christmas Time Is (Coming 'Round Again) and Santa Does - as well as it's more reflective elements, such as bluesy ballads Santa Wants to Take You for a Ride and Christmas for Me Is You. Hey! Merry Christmas! #was produced by The Mavericks' singer Raul Malo alongside Niko Bolas. It also features the multi-instrumentalist group the Fantastic Five (Max Abrams, Julio Diaz, Ed Friedland, Michael Guerra and Lorenzo Molina Ruiz).
