2017 Christmas Playlists

Were it not for an ill-timed bout of food poisoning, I would have unleashed two additional Christmas podcasts out onto the world.  While circumstances prevented that from happening, I can still share the playlists with you!

The first one is basically a collection of some great Dirty Roots-appropriate Christmas tunes.  The second one is, too, but is built on more of a vibe.

Stay tuned for big things coming from Dirty Roots Radio in 2018!!  As always thanks for your support and for listening!  I'm grateful for the opportunity to share this music with you all!

I hope you had great holidays!
