New Album: Double Keyed & The London Symphony Orchestra!
As if life isn’t busy enough for these two ladies, they decided to dream bigger than ever by collaborating with their arranger and producer, Phillip Keveren, on a second Christmas album.
The project is ready for a 2026 release featuring breathtaking arrangements of holiday classics being created by Keveren, but this time, the duo's new album includes a few other musicians, primarily… about 70 of them with The London Symphony Orchestra.
Join Double Keyed as they release their second album that provides sanctuary to souls and spreads the joy of music worldwide. Frances and Kirstin, along with Nashville’s Phillip Keveren, have collaborated to present a remarkable follow-up to Midwinter’s Gift. With Keveren’s renowned arranging and production skills, and the London Symphony Orchestra’s recording prowess, Double Keyed is excited to share their latest captivating instrumental Christmas album.
