Have you heard Ukulena's Holiday Original, "Sugar & Spice"?! Well this is part two of her Christmas gift to you!! A fabulously rockin' version of Marlene Paul's, "I Wanna Spend Christmas With Elvis", by Marlena Lorèn Khramov (Ukulena)!!! Ukulena adores Elvis with her whole heart, and when she came across this vintage tune a few years ago, she not only felt connected to the original singer's name being so close to hers, but the way the song was written reminded Ukulena of how she creatively writes her own tunes, like her song, "Eddie Baby" about Eddie Cochran & portraying his song titles in her song. "I Wanna Spend Christmas With Elvis" was just puuurfect for little Ukulena Kitten! Ukulena co-produced with Producer, David Williams of Melrose Music Studios Hollywood & Palm Springs! On her song she not only soulfully sings along with her little ukulele, but she played the hell out of a 1960's Wurlitzer keyboard during the solo part & got blisters on her fingers! With Craig Fundyga (of The Martini Kings etc.) on main piano Keys, Tony Marsico (of The Martini Kings, Cruzados, Bob Dylan, Divinyls, etc.) on Bass, and Janelle Frese (Jt Rocket her Dolly Mama) on Drums! Merry Christmas!
