Chisholm Country offers its Country Christmas music favorites to set the mood for the holiday season with covers & originals
Nothing puts people in the holiday spirit like music. Christmas songs are like the star on the tree, the stuffing with the turkey, the wrapping and ribbons around the presents. Without them, something seems to be missing.
Right after Thanksgiving, the Christmas songs flood the airwaves, blast from the car stereo, and inundate shoppers with the Christmas Cheer in stores, getting everybody – even the most reluctant – into the season’s spirit.
Of course, everybody has their personal favorites, whether it is the classical hymns, the standards or the more modern songs. Some like to focus on the story of Christmas, others enjoy songs about family gatherings and festivities or the well-earned, snow-filled holiday – not that’s going to happen in Texas, but still, you never know. Others associate with the lamentations of the lonely, about lost love and remorse, especially felt during the holidays.
With so many different versions of classic Christmas songs, it has become a standard for most Country and Western stars to venture into producing their renditions of the seasonal songs, along with a few of their own originals. So since many folks in the Heart of Texas remain partial to their country singers and songwriters, ChisholmCountry.com has come up with a specialized list of Christmas songs, tailored to that preference – one for every day of the Advent.
Change the order, add your own favorites, let us know, so we can add and adapt this list and watch it grow. Have fun listening to the eclectic mix of modern, less known songs, alternative and true classics.
