Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings have penned an original holiday song titled “Ain’t No Chimneys In The Projects”. The exuberant and soulful number finds a young Jones exploring the timeless question: “How exactly does Santa deliver Christmas gifts without using a chimney?” (Puzzling, right kids?) Tune in via its accompanying new music video, directed by Ryan Louie.
Jones’ new album, Give the People What They Want, is due out on January 14th via Daptone Records. In support, she’ll embark on a North American tour beginning in February.
