Breakfast Blend w/ Galaxy Girl & Friends presents:
Galaxy Girl – 20211223 – Merry Festive Humbug
Join me this morning as I try to force some festivity into my soul.
There are radio stations in town that dedicate weeks (if not months) to playing holiday music classics.
But that’s not what I’m here for. There will be no Mariah on this show. No Bing. No Darlene Love. Not even Run D.M.C, as much as I love them.
Today I’m bringing you the songs that are classics in my heart: Jimmy Jamz and Xtopher, Parry Gripp, The Penguins, Froggy Fresh, Dave Watkins, Singing Dogs, El Vez, Lee Harris & Country Sunshine, AND MUCH MORE! Thanks for listening and have a holly jolly good Thursday!
