Josh Homme Releases "Silent Night" Cover: Listen

Earlier this week, Queens of the Stone Age announced that frontman Josh Homme would be releasing a Christmas single. 

On Friday (December 7), the singer shared his quirky rendition of "Silent Night" with help from Australian blues singer-songwriter and guitarist C.W. Stoneking, and a slightly unsettling reading of "'Twas The Night Before Christmas," which features Homme, his wife Brody Dalle of The Distillers and "their three little elves."

The tracks were recorded during QOTSA's 2017 Australian tour and are available on streaming services. The single will also be pressed as a limited edition 7" record, which will be released on December 14th. The vinyl release is available for pre-order here, and comes with a digital download of the two tracks.

As the website states, "proceeds from the single will benefit the Sweet Stuff Foundation, the non-profit created by Homme in 2013 to provide assistance to career musicians, recording engineers, and their families struggling with illness and disability, and to Support Act, an alliance with a similar mission founded in 1997 in Australia by AMCOS, APRA, ARIA and PPCA."
