Doing my annual Christmas/Holiday Radio show this week on the radio and was looking to update it with some new material.

Having a hard time finding anything good.

Anyone have any good recommendations?
Don't have much Kwanza, Hanukkah music

Anyone familiar with the following?
Christmas Twee
Kindercore Records Christmas (I can pick this one up on-line at least)
A John Waters Christmas

Wow. That looks pretty cool. Damn shame what happened to Kindercore. Ryan Lewis is a pretty damn good guy. They got shafted.

i can't find the website that explains what happened in detail, but essentially they allowed this guy to come in and help them run the label (and provide some financial backing) and he basically fired Ryan and the other guy (who's name is escaping me right now) who had founded and built the label in Athens and then moved it to New York. I think that they failed to read the fine print and payed the price.

I knew Ryan from my Freshman dorm at UGA--we used to jam a little, and even though he really did become an insufferable prick when the label started doing well---I always sorta pulled for them because I really liked the idea of some local guys doing well.

I actually ran into him at the OTC reunion show this year and was just kinda like "Yeah, read about that shit online dude---sorry"

I've said it before, and Image I'll say it again.

Woody Phillips is a novelty artist who performs well-known holiday songs and classical pieces on common hand tools. After his training at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, he worked as a cellist and arranger of early American folk music. In 1998, he released his saw-, power drill-, and hammer-orchestrated versions of Christmas standards on A Toolbox Christmas, and followed in 2000 with his personalized ode to composers of the 18th and 19th centuries; Toolbox Classics. ~ Zac Johnson, All Music Guide
