Shawn Colvin follows up her Grammy-winning, platinum a Few Small Repairs album with this collection of seasonal classics and traditional children's lullabies. Shawn, who became a 1st-time mom this past July, was inspired to record these songs by the memory of Lullabies & Night Songs, a book of lullabies illustrated by Maurice Sendak. The album captures the wonder and promise of childhood with 14 songs that shimmer with elegant simplicity and the spirit of the season.
