I’ve been meaning to write my (semi) annual Christmas post for the last couple of weeks, but the frenzy of the holiday season has nearly overwhelmed me this year.
Still, I hope that this year’s batch of songs will still be appreciated as people prepare for their holiday celebrations.
Some of these songs have been featured here before. Some are brand new. But all of them are favorites of mine and will be great to hear year after year.
On behalf of Womenfolk, I wish everyone a happy holiday season.

Gorgeous set here, Robbie; lovely mix, and well-selected. I just posted the Lex Land tune over on my end, too; thanks for helping us find her and so many others this year.
May your days be merry and bright!
This is a great mix of Christmas music. I am glad you shared it with me!
