Afro Blue honors the legacy of Donny Hathaway by releasing his classic song “This Christmas” on December 9, 2020 – 50 years from the initial release. In keeping with their signature “vocal big band” sound, Afro Blue sings a swingin’ a cappella version. With the clever use of Hathaway’s instrumental riff’s as backgrounds, walking bass line, vocal percussion, added soli section and vocal improvisations from stellar soloists, Tyree Austin and Ekep Nkwelle, Afro Blue offers a unique twist to this favorite Christmas classic.
