GREAT LAKE SWIMMERS – “INK FOR A STAR”

THEY DON’T MAKE THEM LIKE THAT ANYMORE (2017)

Nettwerk

December 23, 2017

Great Lake Swimmers have released a new holiday EP titled They Don’t Make Them Like That Anymore. It consists of two original songs, “They Don’t Make Them Like That Anymore” and “Ink For A Star” and two classic Christmas covers, “It Came Upon A Midnight Clear” and a 17th century yuletide carol, “Bring A Torch, Jeanette, Isabella.”

About “Ink For A Star”

The holidays in Canada are made up of incredibly powerful images which for many of us include the deep freeze and snow. Winter can be a great time to get outside and enjoy the season, but it can be even better to watch it unfold from the warmth and hearth of a rural home. ‘Ink For A Star’ is a winter word collage of things remembered from Canadian winters as a child.

They Don’t Make Them Like that Anymore is available now worldwide on iTunes and Spotify via Nettwerk.
