Following Carolling & Crumpets- Mr. Kirkpatrick's best-selling 2006collection of seasonal music - JOY & JUBILATION is a joyous set of tunes and songs - some taken from the Tradition and some newly-composed. Exuberant songs of cheer and celebration - magical songs of mystery and majesty.

John sings and plays a range of squeezeboxes in his own inimitable style, accompanied by members of the South Shropshire 'Castle Carols' and on the lead single 'The Handling of Your Sword' by Benji Kirkpatrick (Bellowhead) on guitar and mandolin.
