Ring in the Holiday Season with a Classic Christmas Lullaby by Songstress Eloise Laws

Eloise Laws’ Christmas Lullaby Single “Sweet Little Jesus Boy” is Available Now on iTunes

(November 29, 2012 - Los Angeles, CA)

Countdown to Christmas with the latest single by world- renowned jazz/R&B vocalist Eloise Laws. Just in time for the Holiday Season, Laws’ “Sweet Little Jesus Boy,” is available for download now on iTunes. The classic Christmas lullaby, written in the style of an African American spiritual by Robert MacGimsey in 1934, was beautifully arranged for Laws’ angelic voice by Kamau Kenyatta.

“The magic of making Christmas music is a tradition in my family,” said Laws, who is the sister to the internationally heralded Laws family of musicians: flutist Hubert, saxophonist Ronnie, and vocalist Debra. “I was inspired to record my favorite Christmas song because I felt it was timely to remind people of the need for hope, courage, and perseverance through life’s struggles, and adversities. This is a song that expresses that message.”

Laws’ exquisite rendition of this classic song is distinctly different from other noted recordings as reflected in the description by A. Scott Galloway, music editor for The Urban Music Scene, “Blessed with an evocative arrangement for piano, hand drums, aching violin and sweet-sweet kalimba, Eloise’s voice drips with soulfully operatic reverence, placing you at the scene of the birth, inviting you to linger long and bask in the wonder.”

The music of the season can transform the bleakest days bright with hope. Ms. Laws’ voice brings to listeners an undeniable sound of peace and love. Director/Actor Bill Duke remarked, “God taught his favorite angel how to sing then named her Eloise Laws.”

Sweet Little Jesus Boy was recorded under SRI International Entertainment in association with Angel Island Records Label. For more about other recordings, visit www.eloiselaws.com and like her on Facebook.

Whitney Houston's Music Stays Alive Through Usher, Jennifer Hudson, CeCe Winans and More

Photo Taken by UrbanMusicBuzz & Sunfish Entertainment at the Beverly Hilton Hotel lawn on Valentines day right after W. Houston passed. 

The "We Will Always Love You - A Grammy Salute to Whitney Houston" was a one hour special on CBS which was pre-taped a month ago in Los Angeles at the Nokia L.A. Live Theater and aired last night November 16th at 10 PM (EST).

Everyone in the theater was remembering the late soul sensation and actress who touched multiple lives from star actors and actresses to major singers like Usher, Britney Spears to LL Cool J and more…

Sharing tears of love and introducing live performers, Halle Berry spoke how much she loved the unforgettable Whitney Houston and than followed up by introducing Jennifer Hudson who performed 3 of Whitney's uptempo songs such as, "I'm Every Women," "How Will I Know," and "I Wanna Dance with Somebody." 

The one person that reflected deeply about knowing Whitney was Clive Davis who ultimately discovered her when she was 19 years old and launched her music career. Clive mentioned how she took his breath away and Whitney gave us the "Greatest Love of All," which was also a major hit song performed by the soul princess.

The song, "Greatest Love of All" was performed by Celine Dion who received standing ovations from the audience after performing such a heart-felt rendition of the song.

Usher poured his soul out in his performance of, "I Believe in You and Me" which was a touching song featured in the hit movie, "The Preacher's Wife" and Usher was introduced by Taraji P Henson who plays a cop on the television show A Person of Interest.

The closing off performance of the one hour special was CeCe Winans and Yolanda Adams who performed, "Count on Me," an angelic version as a duet.
