Holiday Ear Candy

With the exception of the one year I worked in retail through the Christmas season, I love look forward to the day after Thanksgiving every year because along with Black Friday deals, it means that Christmas music listening season has been officially ushered in.

I made myself a little holiday playlist to listen to while wrapping presents and wanted to share it with you!  If you have a Spotify account, search for "A Various Vanities Holiday", or you can check out some of the clips provided below.  Happy listening - remember and believe in the healing power of all music, even with the terrible tragedies of the day.
