Billy Gibbons is getting in the holiday spirit. The ZZ Top frontman has shared a new single, “Jingle Bell Blues.”
The song is a reinterpretation of a Christmastime classic, brought downtempo with fuzzed-out electric guitar. Billy recorded the track in Nashville this summer, wanting to give Christmas music a “Jimmy Reed blues vibe.”
“Around Christmas, it always seems that there are five to ten holiday selections listed in the lower right corner of a typical juke box in a typical juke joint, the song titles and artist names printed on wreath-bedecked title strips,”he says. "We threw in some hot rod references for good measure because our preferred sleigh is the horsepower-propelled kind.”Check out the song below. Source:Louder photo:Getty Images Video: YouTube
