Yuletide In The Shire
Everstar (2003)
This is my favorite Christmas album. I picked it up during Musikfest 2008 at a Celtic shop called Donegal Square, along with a few other similar CDs, and my wife and I have listened to it every holiday season ever since.
There's not a lot of information online about the recording artists. The only thing I can find for sure is that they released one other album called Enchanted Journey in the same year. The website for the label, Sequoia Records, is still online, but it's just a placeholder page with a message that the site is closed for maintenance, along with a few links to listen to the music that they have produced on various streaming services.
Yuletide In The Shire is available to stream on YouTube, Spotify, Amazon, Pandora, and many other sources. It's a very mellow and peaceful holiday listening experience that I hope you enjoy as much as I do.
