On Friday, November 14^th, Yellow Snow finally unveiled their much-talked about album, ‘Volume 1’ which features fun and must-hear renditions of holiday classics and original compositions. And along with the album’s release will come their next single/video, for the track “Man in Red.”

“‘Man in Red’ was the first original Christmas song we wrote,” explains Yellow Snow’s creator, composer, multi-instrumentalist, producer, and vocalist Mike DiBiase. “When it was finished , I said to myself, ‘Now this is exactly the sound I’ve always wanted to create for this project.’ I also think that since it was an original song, I could approach it from a completely new direction, and I had nothing to stick to in terms of melodies, arrangement, or sonic palette. It was a clean slate to go as outside of the lines as I wanted to.”

“Which also got me thinking, ‘Why not approach all the songs this way?’ I realized I could use the original composition as a template or a work tape, and then complete it however works best for the song. Sonically, everything came together once we merged these big, in your face guitars with the attitude and grit of the horns, courtesy of Curt Ramm and Bill Holloman. This is the sound of Yellow Snow.”

For years, Rhode Island-born DiBiase — a lifelong musician and EMMY ® Award-nominated audio post production talent by trade — had “gifted” family and friends hard rock Christmas songs. He decided to bring them to the stage at a Rhode Island club in 2007 for the live debut of Yellow Snow, packing the house and donating a portion of the proceeds to various charities.

He annually headlined shows throughout the ensuing years stirring up a level of cult fandom among the initiated. The music also quietly took on a life of its own as DiBiase’s original song “Giddy Yup, Santa Claus” landed a high-profile sync on The CW’s Riverdale.

Armed with the framework constructed by DiBiase and his bandmates (Matt Baird, Al Diaz, Franklin La Barbara, Denise Gouvin, Jason Berndt, and Chris Piccirillo), he decamped to Nashville in order to finish recording what would become Yellow Snow’s full-length debut LP, ‘Volume 1’ during 2023.
