This week I'm joined by Jason Doncis, producer of State of Amorica and a proud Patreon Mixtaper, and together we’re curating a festive playlist filled with our favorite Christmas and holiday songs released after 1980!

While holiday music is often associated with timeless classics from earlier decades, we’re shining a spotlight on the modern era of seasonal songs—from '80s staples and '90s gems to 2000s pop hits and recent indie favorites. Whether it’s a new take on a beloved traditional tune or an original track that’s become a holiday essential, these songs bring the joy, nostalgia, and warmth of the season with a fresh twist.

So pour yourself a glass of eggnog, cozy up by the fire, and join us as we unwrap a mix of post-1980 holiday tunes that are perfect for your next Christmas party, winter road trip, or relaxing night in. It’s a playlist that blends the spirit of the season with the sound of the decades that followed—and it just might become your new holiday tradition!
