What comes to mind when you hear the words ‘Christmas music’? 

For us, it’s a crackling fire and the warm sound of a vinyl record. It’s evenings meandering through the neighbourhood admiring the lights; snowflakes dancing, and a hot cup of something in hand. It’s the smell of gingerbread and sugar cookies, of fruitcakes and minced pies. It’s a time of year when we allow ourselves to lean into these simple rituals with the same vivacity we once did when we were young.

Whether you’re baking cookies, decking the halls, preparing for company, wrapping gifts, or enjoying any of the many time-honoured traditions of the season, we’ve curated a playlist to accompany this warm and whimsical time. We’ve strayed away from modern renditions and have leaned into the crooners, because after all: is it really Christmas without the classics?

Listen here.
