“Silent Night” (feat. C.W. Stoneking)/“’Twas The Night Before Christmas” (feat. the Homme Family)
Limited Edition Benefit Single Available Directly from QOTSA.com & All Streaming Platforms—Proceeds to Benefit the Sweet Stuff Foundation & Support Act
Queens of the Stone Age are working off the holiday spread in advance. The band is spreading year-end tidings of comfort and joy whether you want it or not.
First up is a limited edition Xmas single available on 7” vinyl directly from QOTSA.com and to stream, wherever streamers stream. The A-side is a rendition of “Silent Night” teaming Joshua Homme with Australian blues singer-songwriter and guitarist C.W. Stoneking, and the flipside features a reading of “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas,” with Brody Dalle, Joshua Homme and their three merry-making elves.
Recorded during QOTSA’s 2017 tour of Australia in East Fremantle, the single will be released digitally on December 7th; the limited edition vinyl release is set for December 14th exclusively HERE.
Proceeds from the single will benefit the Sweet Stuff Foundation, the non-profit created by Homme in 2013 to provide assistance to career musicians, recording engineers and their families struggling with illness and disability, and to Support Act, an alliance with a similar mission founded in 1997 in Australia by AMCOS, APRA, ARIA and PPCA.
