Was Christmas born in England ?

Was Christmas born in England? Jackson~Hewitt believe so and would like to share their belief with the release of their new feel-good Christmas anthem of the same name. written from the perspective of an English soldier stationed abroad over the festive period, the song portrays emotion ,optimism and patriotism in equal measure and will surely strike a chord with anyone who can imagine the feeling of being away from home and family over Christmas – whatever your nationality.

DUGDALE'S FLOWERS
The Excellent New Album from
JACKSON~HEWITT

Jackson Hewitt’s debut LP certainly has a rustic feel to it. Largely folk driven but with some celt/rock elements and lyrics born from personal experiences, this is a tidy and charming album.

"This is a fine folk record, Tir na Nog is what immediately comes to mind when I listen to this excellent record. This duo is comprised of a drummer and a guitarist/vocalist. There are a few guest musicians and some really fine production on these songs. They are always folk driven, but the rock elements and sonic landscaping is excellent. “Religion” is a nice gutsy song that is the rockiest number on the album. The horn arrangements are used with care deep in the mix. I am not sure they hit a wrong note here."

Jackson Hewitt are a Lancashire-based two-piece with a pure sound, storytime lyrics and nothing but guts.Here you’ll find a blend of progressive folk with traditional Celtic influences. Twenty One draws attention to their refined sound with the merging of a perfect fiddle with clear vocals. Their music is telling of a life that’s been lived, and would be worth the experience

Jackson~Hewitt through "Dugdales Flowers" show that something that is given freedom can always shake off the cobwebs and become something new.

it is just the most appealing CD I have
heard in a blue moon"
