After a couple days in a row of melancholy Holiday Dick offerings, we need to get upbeat in a hurry. And what makes for a more upbeat wintry day than one that has just been called off by a school superintendent for excessive snowfall? (This, of course, does not take into consideration the POV of the parents involved, but we are concerned with the rock, not the cradle on this here blog.)
Fortunately for us, one of the bands that has already garnered high marks from us for their recent full-length release also has the perfect to track to share with you. The title track and album closer from their 2007 EP Snowday, Afternoon Naps actually dropped this track for a Christmas Day release! How much more holiday cheer can you get? One listen to the Harry Nilsson meets Burl Ives and some gift-wrapped instrumental twee and you’ll be hooked, wishing for your own day out in the snow.
