Based on true events, The Heart Collectors new single ‘Joyeux Noël’ tells a chillingly beautiful tale of the Christmas Truce of WW1. A moment in history when the spirit of Christmas overwhelmed conflict. Widespread unofficial ceasefires along the Western front in 1914 brought French, British and German soldiers together in one of the most iconic games of football and congenial exchange. With a nod to the Christian Carion’s cinematic masterpiece of the same title released in 2005, ‘Joyeux Noël’ becomes an anthem for peace.
Lead by the story telling lyrics and melody of band member Mobius Barnaby, The Heart Collectors allow sonic space and mood to envelop the listener through atmospheric harmonies, stripped back acoustic guitar and tasteful percussion.
Joyeux Noël is a courageous ballad that leaves the heart hopeful.
