After a successful 20th Anniversary celebration, Christmas in the Northwest is back again with an outstanding compilation of original and traditional holiday music.  This year’s CD featuring The Coats, Ashleigh Flynn, Kenny G, Ian McFeron, Michael Powers, Kevin Thornton of Color Me Badd and many, many more talented artists, is starting to creep up on store shelves throughout the Northwest!

That’s right; Christmas in the Northwest has now joined the high-tech world.  You can find our very first podcast and blog at www.myspace.com/christmasinthenorthwest.  Take a listen!  Have a look!  You may just learn something about the project that has touched so many lives since 1985!
