Monokini fait twister Noël

We recently told you about Monokini's latest French Christmas single, 'Rock N' Roll Du Père Noël'. Now, the album 'Monokini fait twister Noël' has dropped like Santa through the chimney into a lit fireplace! There's a cover of 'Le Twist du Père Noël' by France's Les Chaussettes Noires, Christmas classics about reindeers and chestnuts, and a cool a cappella-ish outro about a famous pop Christmas song you'll have to shake to guess what's inside.

For the advanced class, the second song on the album, 'Jingle Bells', has added and reworked the entire guitar intro of 'Est-ce que tu le sais?' by Les Chats Sauvages, a French cover of Ray Charles' 'What'd I Say'. The song was also made popular in French by Sylvie Vartan should you decide to go down this wondrous rabbit hole. Consider this titbit as a nice stocking stuffer. The other songs have 'intro stocking stuffers, (I've officially made this a thing), and I'll let you unwrap them.

Monokini's album is a sweet yuletide delight from start to finish and I'm off to score this as a gift.
