If you enjoy indie rock (off-kilter melodies with experimental instrumentation) and Christmas (that thing that occurs every December 25th), then you owe it to yourself to listen to this show. For five years I've been tracking down songs that sound like something I would play on a regular Constant Grin episode, yet are thematically based around jolly fat men and decorated pine trees. This year's edition is mostly comprised of original holiday tunes, but also features a few cover versions of yuletide classics. So raise up that glass of nog and join the avant-garde merriment!
Does today's program collect all of your favorite Halloween standbys in one convenient show? No! Okay, is it Halloween music reinterpreted by indie rock musicians? Wrong again! Well, does it have anything to do with Halloween whatsoever? Not strictly speaking, no. But it is a half hour of creepy, unsettling, ominous tunes, performed by indie bands, scientifically proven to get you in the mood to carve a pumpkin and/or don a cheesy rubber mask. Listen to this show with someone who frightens you!

Hey I heard a song tonight on your show and I can't remember what the name of it was. You said it was a band that you hardly play on the radio and they're local? Do you have a playlist from your show tonight?
Chris is out this week, but here is his playlist for this show: https://kdrt.org/program-playlist/constant-grin-playlist-09182020
