We've pulled it all out the stocking on this one. You'd be a fool not to buy it for every family member, friend and tinder acquaintance this Christmas.\"\n\nhttps://girlray.bandcamp.com/album/i-wish-i-were-giving-you-a-gift-this-christmas", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3595738, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3595738/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-12-25T07:18:05-08:00", "show": 65471, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/65471/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Christmas Lights On The Lawn", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "Illicit Ghost", "artist_ids": [ "9bc1dc91-e952-4a25-af21-301e89a69a02" ], "album": "Christmas Lights On The Lawn", "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": "2020-12-04", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "Ilicit Ghost said:\n“This song was inspired by all of the people who hung their Christmas lights up early during quarantine to bring a little hope into the world. I didn’t set out with the idea to write a holiday song but one day I was sitting at the piano and the words and music just poured out. \n\nIt’s been such a difficult year and I hope that this song can bring some light into this dark time. I recorded the vocals and violins at home and produced this one out with Elliot Jacobson (Vérité, Ingrid Michaelson). \n\nAlthough we both live in NYC we sent stems back and forth to each other online because of quarantine. When we finished the song, we sent it to the incredibly talented Mike Tuccillo, who mixed and mastered the track in Los Angeles.”\n\nAnd with that, I’ll leave you to listen to “Christmas Lights on the Lawn:\"\nhttps://bandsdobrooklyn.com/2020/12/03/premiere-christmas-lights-on-the-lawn-from-illicit-ghost/", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3595737, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3595737/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-12-25T07:15:51-08:00", "show": 65471, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/65471/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "comment": "", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "airbreak" }, { "id": 3595735, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3595735/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-12-25T07:13:04-08:00", "show": 65471, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/65471/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "Driving Home for Christmas", "track_id": "3303ae44-b4e1-4684-aa09-c676d5bfad9e", "recording_id": "a6cc145d-6cf2-4896-a8d4-707c6d8bfd68", "artist": "Middle Kids", "artist_ids": [ "2c02eece-9832-4850-9150-b0e269f65d8b" ], "album": "Driving Home for Christmas", "release_id": "1ed6da55-804a-4b20-be58-8d69f2daf3a9", "release_group_id": "ed30ab98-7f5c-47c8-9b0d-ae1c4de74cdb", "labels": [ "[no label]" ], "label_ids": [ "157afde4-4bf5-4039-8ad2-5a15acc85176" ], "release_date": "2023-11-09", "rotation_status": "Library", "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "2023 single from the Sydney, Australian band:\n\nhttps://www.middlekidsmusic.com/", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" } ] }
