The single will be released on November 22.

John Seymour, lead singer and songwriter, noted that many Christmas songs have inspired him over the years. "There are some great Christmas tunes that have been recorded from the likes of George Michael and John Lennon," he explained.

“A Very Merry Local X-Mas, Volume 1” features renditions of holiday classics and original pieces by power-pop four-piece The Fire Apes, punk/emo/metal band Handgun Sonata, proggy rock duo The Tens (with a guest vocal performance from former quench singer Kally Knight), Carolina soul/rock act The Soul Mites, hardcore metal group Belligerent, alt-rockers Moonless Moth, rock duo The Diesel Brothers, and punk/pop band Steve Hit Mike. Proceeds from the sale of the cd benefit Charleston area charities including the Lowcountry Food Bank.
