Download album For KING & COUNTRY – A Drummer Boy Christmas Mp3 Zip
On the heels of a Billboard Music Award win and American Music Award nomination, four-time GRAMMY award-winning Australian duo and Curb | Word Entertainment recording artist for KING & COUNTRY releases its first full-length Christmas album A Drummer Boy Christmas, available today.

Joel Smallbone, one half of for KING & COUNTRY, shares his thoughts on the album release:
“This album has been 8 years in the making. It all started in an old factory on a dreary 2012 autumn’s night where we dreamt up our rendition of ‘Little Drummer Boy.’ And from that day to this, and with a load of Christmas tours, singles and EPs under our belt, we’ve fallen in love with this miraculous season and it’s been written into the band’s DNA.
“So, when the hardship of 2020 took hold of the world, we thought that it would be the imperfectly perfect year to put together our first-ever full-length Christmas record. And what a recording journey it’s been and an international one at that, from producers (Matt Hales) in Bath England, to string orchestration (Davide: Coldplay) in Copenhagen, to recording with our live band in Nashville, or mixing in London – this album has truly been a global creation. ”
