Remixing the Holidays: Christmas TV Special Songs with Marcy Playground

The World

It’s the week before Christmas, and as usual, we’re celebrating with our annual ?Remixing the Holidays? series. All week long, we’re talking with musicians, music lovers, writers, and you, our listeners, about the best songs of the season.

Today, we’re joined by John Wozniak and Dylan Keefe, the lead singer and bassist of the band Marcy Playground. Named for a school playground in Minneapolis, the band has always been inspired by childhood, and they’re here to share their favorite holiday songs from the classic television holiday specials.

Marcy Playground’s newest album, which was released in September, is called ?Indaba Remixes from Wonderland.?
