DECEMBER SPOTIFY.COM PLAYLIST
In this flurry of buying gifts and shopping it is a challenge to turn things around and count the gifts that we have already received. Many lyrics have been written about the gifts that the seasons bring--other than the physical presents. We would like to invite you get your gears going and move your fingers to craft a poem that celebrates the gifts of the season. Regardless, please enjoy our gift to you; a playlist of sounds and songs by Sufjan Stevens, Mark Kozelek, Townes Van Zant, and Doc Watson. Original playlist created by Chris Bodor.
