Time to check in and check it out with the 2008 arrival of Hotel Cafe Presents …Winter Songs, an all-female singer-songwriter holiday album which features a collection of the classics as well as brand new originals including a duet by Sara Bareilles and Ingrid Michaelson. Also includes tracks by Katy Perry, Colbie Caillat, Fiona Apple, KT Tunstall, and Brandi Carlile. In the year of the female singer-songwriter, the timing is prime for this release.

Each of the songs on this album reflect the style of the various singers, and there are a few standouts. Fiona Apple’s version of Frosty, Sara Bareilles does a lovely job with hers, and Silver Bells is a full-throated, gorgeous rendition. In fact, all of the songs are well done with one glaring exception: Katy Perry. Her rendition of White Christmas makes me think that she was either drunk while recording, or deliberately mocking the song. Really unlistenable. It’s a pity that such the one track would be so jarringly off-key in the midst of a very good mix.
