album synopsisIn a world where the Lord is come, and earth receives her King, a holiday season like no other is just around the corner. Francis is a shock rock composer with a heart of gold. Father Christmas is a jolly old televangelist with a collection plate of gold. God is a fire and brimstone deity with a holier-than-thou complex. Jesus is a crybaby hippie of a savior who cannot please anyone. The four of them end up crossing paths one memorable Christmas, and all hell breaks loose. Starring Matthew Scarborough as Francis. With Matthew Scarborough as Father Christmas. Featuring Matthew Scarborough as God. And introducing Matthew Scarborough as Jesus. A Matthew Scarborough Production, the likes of which, you've never heard before. The brand new original concept album: Under The Influence: A Christmas Cataclysm.
