Jimmy Rae: I’m very excited to talk about your new single “All The Peace For Christmas” and how did the idea come about for this song?
Laura Cheadle: I had an idea for about a month about writing a Christmas song about everyone being free this Christmas. I really wanted to have a song that promoted peace, no matter who you are, who you love or where you’re from. I sat down one morning and said to Michelle (who is in Laura Cheadle + The Girls) and said ‘Play some jazzy chords’. From there, the melody and lyrics poured out of us. We knew it was something special because it was written within an hour.
Jimmy Rae: This new single has a very chill vibe and friendly demeanor that fans will love! How did it feel when you were recording this track originally and did it come out exactly how you had planned it?
Laura Cheadle: We had it ready to go and recorded it in one session. We knew exactly what we wanted and it all flowed so beautifully! I wanted it to be a fun acoustic vibe that everyone could easily bop around to. You can hear me playing bongos and tambourine on it, which was so fun! Michelle plays guitar and bass and even harmonized with me on background vocals! I sang the lead vocal very quickly because it just flowed!
Jimmy Rae: There is a very positive message in the title alone and wonder what “All The Peace For Christmas” means to you and The Girls personally?
Laura Cheadle: “All The Peace For Christmas” is about having the freedom we all deserve, no matter who you are, or who you love, to live at peace during this holiday season.
Jimmy Rae: The Christmas season is a wonderful time of year and my favorite time of year to be honest, just due to the spirit of it all. What makes the Christmas season extra special for you and The Girls?
Laura Cheadle: I am truly in the spirit this year! We have a full Holiday tour this year promoting the song all over television and music venues!
I really am making it my goal to promote peace, with all that is happening in the world right now.
Jimmy Rae: I LOVED the music video for “All The Peace For Christmas”! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sr3QEgDBXuY&t=112s)
It was very entertaining and had a festive feel complete with cool snow effect ! Where did the idea come about to make a video and where was the video shot?
Laura Cheadle: This also happened seamlessly! Our social media girl Hope Hahn filmed and directed the video. Michelle came up with the idea to film in front of City Hall Philadelphia and it happened to be the perfect day for it. We then went to several other locations in Philadelphia including Cherry Street Pier! I think everyone is loving the scenery and background of Philadelphia! Philadelphia represents freedom so it’s the perfect backdrop for this song.
Jimmy Rae: With us celebrating Thanksgiving recently, what are some of your favorite traditions and favorite foods?
Laura Cheadle: I am vegan so I make my special Vegan Tofu Turkey, vegan Mac and cheese, vegan green bean casserole!
Jimmy Rae: Staying with Thanksgiving, love to know your Top 10 or Top 5 List of Things You’re Most Thankful For?
