Known for fusing salsa tradition with musical sophistication, Perignon imbues the track with an unmistakable rhythmic energy, perfect for end-of-year celebrations. The original composition by J. Fred Coots and Haven Gillespie receives a musical treatment that pays tribute to the joy of the season.
Perignon, an artist dedicated to percussion, used his Toca Percussion instruments to bring this interpretation to life. Regarding the release, the artist comments:
“For me, ‘Santa Claus Is Comin’ To Town’ is a classic that represents the joy and excitement we all feel at Christmas. It’s that moment when we become children again, when music, lights, and family come together. I wanted to bring that emotion to my style, with rhythm and the sound of my Toca Percussion instruments, so people could feel Christmas closer, regardless of language.”
This single not only highlights Perignon’s mastery in direction and production, but also offers the public a piece that integrates perfectly into any festive playlist with a Latin flavor.
The launch of “Santa Claus Is Coming To Town” solidifies Pete Perignon as a figure who transcends genres and seasons, bringing the power of percussion to global audiences.
The single is now available on all digital music platforms.
