Editorial Review:
The award for the most original Christmas album for 2000 goes hands down to the three Osborn sisters--Kristyn, Kelsi, and Kassidy--of Shedaisy for their ambitious pop-rock mini-masterpiece Brand New Year. Exemplary rewrites, rearrangements, and rewired standards such as "Jingle Bells," "Deck the Halls," "Sleigh Ride," and others may tug at your holiday heartstrings for a whole other set of reasons. Add a handful of memorable and sometimes mesmerizing originals and rediscovered gems such as "Christmas Children" from the 1969 musical Scrooge and you've got a record that, at times, almost tries too hard to be too innovative, arty, and occasionally even Beatles-inspired (check that dense harmony and musical interplay/production on "Tinseltown" and the breathtaking arrangement of "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing/Carol of the Bells"). Still, this is an immensely gratifying album even with its slight misses: creative, sometimes caustic, playful, and always full of changes that demand your attention. You won't be disappointed; its rewards for those who stay tuned are many (including a ghost track of a stirring a cappella arrangement at the end). Wow! --Martin Keller
Brand New Year Reviews:
Great Christmas cd! 
2008-02-10 - I love this cd - one of the best Christmas cds one can buy. Great arrangements on classics and the SheDaisy girls have fantastic voices.
Great holiday music 
2008-01-18 - This is a different take on the same old christmas carols that everyone redoes every year with some new stuff thrown in. All in all, its a great album to put you in the holiday mood.
Best and newest Christmas mix I've heard !!! 
2007-11-24 - This CD is Amazing. Every song has a twist and is so creatively done. The harmonies are unbelievable!!!! The song's just make you want to get up and dance!!! For people who love music and want to hear something new and exciting, I so recommend buying this CD. My husband even loves it(which is a TOTAL shocker) and he likes mostly 80's metal, 90's alternative and today's Pop & Rock like: Daughtry, Maroon 5 and the Killers etc.... So When he likes it, it's usually pretty good! My kids love it too!!! It is so fun!!!! This seriously is one the best and newest Christmas CD's I found to date! I am even buying another copy just so I have a spare! Merry Christmas everyone!!!
Something different 
2007-01-19 - I love this cd. SheDaisy puts some great twists on old classics plus give us some good new songs.
Best Christmas Album 
2007-01-11 - I love this album and recommend it to anyone. I love the different styles of Christmas music that they sing. I bought it for their rendition of "Jingle Bells" that sounds like a romantic sleigh ride and absolutely love the other songs too. It's about all I listened to over Christmas and my kids all sang along in the car with me. They never do that.
