INFO: Aimee Mann and Super Ego Records announce the release of One More Drifter In The Snow, due in stores on October 24, 2006. Reflecting a wide range of emotional tones of the season, Aimee Mann explains that she wanted to create an album that "captures the spooky beauty and mystery that Christmas is." Mann compares her idea of the ..spooky mystery.. to that feeling she used to get from watching the Peanuts Christmas special, where Charlie Brown starts out depressed about the season until the spiritual beauty of Christmas is pointed out. Aimee further recalls "I literally couldn..t sleep all night and at midnight would peer out my window hoping to catch a glimpse of the Christmas star or maybe even Santa, who was this cool ghost who brings you presents."The album features a mixture of classics that every body knows sprinkled with a few originals. Produced by Paul Bryan, the album includes the original song "Calling On Mary" written by Aimee and Paul specifically for the occasion. Aimee also sings the original Michael Penn tune "Christmastime.. and duets with Grant Lee Phillips on their new version of the Dr. Seuss.. children..s classic "You..re A Mean One, Mr. Grinch."
