Why did the fan of Christmas songs open up Spotify? To listen to “Silver Bells” by Michael Tinholme, of course! Okay, that’s the awful opener out of the way – it’s the time of year for terrible cracker jokes anyhow. In all seriousness, if you’re looking for a classy new addition to your xmas playlist, you could do far worse than check out “Silver Bells.” Tinholme’s version is lushly produced and full of genuine warmth – exactly the kind of song to relax with as you treat yourself to some expensive chocolates while watching the snow flutter down outside your double-glazed window.
If you’ve not heard of Michael before, you will certainly be surprised and moved by his back-story. Michael has overcome obstacles and challenges which most of us would shudder to think about, including domestic abuse and homelessness. That’s a huge amount of trauma for anyone to overcome, so it’s even more impressive that Tinholme remains an optimistic, upbeat person, with nothing but love to share. Give “Silver Bells” a listen and it might just become your new seasonal favourite.
