Season's Swinging Greetings: Deluxe Edition" is the culmination of a 3-year long holiday vision between arranger/pianist Steven Feifke and trumpeter/vocalist Benny Benack III. Recorded both in-person and utilizing remote recording during the pandemic, the deluxe edition includes a stellar string section on a number of tracks, as well as brand new holiday classic original material, plus familiar favorites in big band form. A bonus quartet track is included featuring a spirited romp through "Sleigh Ride". Mixed and mastered by Dave Darlington at Bass Hit Studios in NYC, the full-length album features 10 tracks in total, including two singles (Sleigh Ride & Maoz Tsur). The personnel is a veritable who's-who of New York's finest musicians, including solo contributions from rising star reedist Alexa Tarentino, a vocal duet ft. Alita Moses, and even a special guest appearance by vibraphone master Warren Wolf, among others. The repertoire is a mix between original material penned by both Benack and Feifke, as well as an emphasis on re-energizing familiar holiday fare.

Press Quotes
There's an attractive mixture of sincerity and humor to be found in the way this crew addresses the holidays, but don't let the lightheartedness fool you: The musicianship is serious, and seriously on point.
