Singer/songwriter John Brown releases “Christmas at the Beach”
For many years, John Brown and his band led the holiday sing-a-longs at the Manhattan Beach Holiday Fireworks Show. This year the popular singer/songwriter continues his contributions to local holiday music with a newly released song celebrating “Christmas at the Beach.” The single, which is available on Apple Music and CD Baby hints at McCartney-ish inflections and Ben Harper rhythms. But Brown’s voice and lyrics are pure South Bay — “Good waves and longboards shinin’/Good friends and bicycle ridin.’”
