Happy Holidays! Here is a delightful quiz that you can take at your holiday leisure! I've learned several things from this quiz. First, that Christmas can get really dark in some places, and second, Amanda knows more things about things than I do.
This episode also features my favorite ode to Christmas, an epic tune that is sure to replace that one Mariah Carey song as the definitive song of the season: "All I Want for Christmas is Christmas This Christmas" by Gainesville greats Travis Atria and Michael Claytor
Enjoy!
Our opening music is by Andrew Wilson - Find him at electricsheap.bandcamp.com/music
"All I Want for Christmas is Christmas This Christmas" is by Travis Atria and Michael Claytor
Travis is an author, journalist, and musician. His writing has appeared in Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair, The Believer, Wax Poetics and more. His first book was "Traveling Soul", which I very much enjoyed, is a biography of R&B legend Curtis Mayfield, written with Mayfield’s son Todd. His latest book, Better Days Will Come Again, is the true story of jazz great Arthur Briggs. His music has been featured on MTV and GQ.com, and he has performed at Bonnaroo and SXSW. Search for "Morningbell" to find it.
Michael has been playing and singing original and cover songs since 2005, and is happy to call Gainesville, FL home. He is a multi-instrumentalist and a clever wordsmith...meaning I think his songs are written gooder than most. Specializing in fingerstyle guitar and bluegrass banjo, this talented performer has recorded several albums with various bands and his tours have taken him all over the US and beyond...maybe even into space, you don't know...
