Christmas Song/Album of the Day: A Kristian Kind of Christmas V

Much like Beyonce, the album A Kristian Kind of Christmas dropped without much advanced notice.

Okay, that’s a bit of a lie. Local up and coming singer-songwriter-producer Kristian Pedersen has been releasing Christmas albums every year around this time for the past half decade. This year marks the fifth edition of this yuletide tradition and it’s all available for download!

Being from Toronto, it appears that Pedersen has taken some inspiration from his bff* Drake and peppered in some local touches to his holiday songs, citing references to the largely ignored Bessarion subway station as well as sometimes music-writer Rob Duffy. Luckily for us, he resisted the urge to use the always popular Rob Ford as a cultural reference.

The album is free to download and stream, so check it out below. Let’s face it, if you hear Wham one more time this season, you’ll probably murder someone so why not try something new?
