专辑简介

Michael Damian is a multi-faceted performer who, in addition to his television credits, has scored a Billboard Number 1 hit with "Rock On", earned a BMI songwriting award for his composition "Was It Nothing At All", and starred in a record-breaking Broadway production of "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat." Michael's musical success is a combination of genetics, hard work and perseverance: he is the second youngest of nine children whose parents shared with their family a deep appreciation and love for music - as well as a desire to create it. Michael started performing at the age of 10 (vocals/organ/vibes), joining his siblings in their band "The Weirz", before launching his solo multi-media career. On "Michael Damian and Family: The Christmas Album", Michael once again enlists the help of his relatives - more than 20 family members in all, including his classically trained mother, Maria, who provides piano arrangements, accompaniment, and production; father Larry Sr.; brothers and regular collaborators Larry Weir (with whom he co-wrote the now-classic opening track, "Christmas Time Without You") and Tom Weir, a well-known producer/engineer/studio owner on the L.A. Music Scene. This Album has everything but a Partridge in a pear tree, although, if you listen carefully, you can actually hear five sisters playing, four nieces singing, three nephews wailing, two sisters' husbands, and a wife and mother-in-law.
