Grammy-nominated, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, five-piece August Burns Red releases an instrumental holiday cover song every year. This year’s selection is classical track “Waltz of the Flowers” from “The Nutcracker” by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.
“In keeping with our annual tradition, we are excited to reveal this year’s August Burns Red holiday song,” the band said. “We tackled the classical ballet ‘Waltz of the Flowers,’ taken from Tchaikovsky’s ‘The Nutcracker.’ It was so much fun adding our spin to the timeless melodies written by this legendary composer. Hope you like it and happy holidays!”
It follows the September release of the new track “Exhumed.”
The 2024 edition of the band’s annual Christmas Burns Red extravaganza is set for Dec. 13 and 14 at Freedom Hall at the Lancaster Country Convention Center in downtown Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
