And here’s a video shot by our friend Roy Kasten of the band performing on the Holiday Magic Express. Yes, it’s Rough Shop rocking the yuletide on a moving train.

Rough Shop loves Christmas (and Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and Festivus). Last year, we recorded our first holiday CD, Just Because It Was Christmas, featuring original songs and three covers, and a sound that combines rock, country, jazz and folk. And sleigh bells, too. Read some reviews of the CD here.

Buy the CD online at CD Baby or at one of these fine St. Louis establishments: Euclid Records, Vintage Vinyl, Music Folk and Local Harvest.
