How cool is this, a CD from Plunket, with a whole host of Kiwi talent singing Christmas songs.  With the likes of Opshop, Annie Crummer, Shona Laing, Hollie Smith just to name a few it’s a must have in the CD player this Christmas.

The initiative was taken by Monique Rhodes, a singer song/writer living in France, who on her visit back to New Zealand felt moved to do something to give back and she chose Plunket to do just that.

‘Titled ‘Merry Christmas Baby’, the album combines original songs with a handful of unique versions of traditional Christmas songs. It is my Christmas wish that with the help of this album our children have the chance of a good life.’        Monique Rhodes

Proceeds of the CD go to Plunket to help Kiwi kids get a better start in life and personally I can’t think of a better cause to support at Christmas.

Check out www.merrychristmasbaby.co.nz for a complete list of artists but this is definitely one to put in the CD stack at home, or in my case the car so my children can get the benefit of my singing as well.  Funny that they don’t seem to appreciate that.

Available: Plunket, The Warehouse, the CD Store, JB Hi Fi, Real Groovy, Marbecks or shop online at www.merrychristmasbaby.co.nz

Price:$25.95  or if you pop into Plunket, Level 5, Plunket House, 132 Lambton Quay, it’s only $20.00.
