Curb Records recording artist We Are Messengersbrings tidings of good news and great joy with their version of “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing.”

Sticking to a traditional arrangement of the beloved carol, the group injects flavors of lead singer Darren Mulligan’s native Ireland into the celebratory selection. Accented by tribal beats, fiddle and mandolin, Mulligan jubilantly proclaims the birth of Christ by way of this timeless classic. Additionally, his wife, Heidi, provides background vocals.

The release heralds We Are Messengers’ upcoming holiday EP, Rejoice! (A Celtic Christmas), a five-song collection set to bow Nov. 15, 2024.

The announcement of their new Christmas set comes on the heels of last month’s surprise drop of fresh original “Give Thanks to God (feat. Matt Maher),” a congregational-friendly anthem Mulligan and Maher wrote together.
