“Dakota Dave Hull and Kari Larson have created an airy celebration of strings and wood that provides relief from canine choruses of “Jingle Bells” and holiday Muzak. They intersperse gems from Finland, Ireland, and Italy with more familiar titles, and the sounds they create on ukulele, mandolin, and archtop, flattop, Weissenborn, tenor, National, and piccolo guitars range from intimate and reverential to swingy and playful. The darkly whimsical “Christmas Is Coming” is a made-to-order sequel to ‘The Nightmare before Christmas.’ (Arabica)” —Ben Elder, Acoustic Guitar Magazine
