Singer-songwriter Mike Aiken is ready for the holiday season. He recently released a new single and video, ‘Almost Christmas.’ As an extra treat, Mike shares his own egg nog recipe in another video, you can watch it here.

More info from the press release:

The video, directed by Andrew Piland, inspires a sense of peace and quietude, reflecting a season of restoration and hope. Twinkling lights and snow-filled vistas fuel the viewer’s imagination while a wreath-bedecked train brings eager travelers home. The striking red barn and manor house featured throughout the video are located at Windsor Castle Park in historic Smithfield, Virginia.

Additional scenes were shot inside downtown Smithfield’s The Christmas Store. Thousands of ornaments, including the glass candy-cane guitar slide used by Aiken, sparkled magically. “The town’s charm perfectly fit how I felt when I wrote the song,” says Aiken. “The folks at Smithfield Tourism, The Christmas Store and the locals all went out of their way to make us feel welcome during the shoot.”

The single is available to radio programmers via Airplay Direct and CDX, and fans can purchase the ALMOST CHRISTMAS EP (Northwind Records) and single online at Amazon and iTunes. The disc includes three originals and three classics recorded in Aiken’s signature style. Look for the video to air next month on ZUUS Country, America’s Country Connection, Young Country TV, Sunday’s Kind Of Country, Alternate Root TV, and HighwayFM TV.

In an effort to give his fans an additional taste of the holiday spirit, Mike has posted his own personal egg nog recipe video HERE.
