via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
Braden Blake is a singer/songwriter previously in the band Super Deluxe.
Ira Merrill (also formerly of Super Deluxe) and Brian Kerrigan are folk-rock band "The Oh Wells".
For a couple years, the aforementioned idiots threatened to collaborate on a Christmas album, and this jolly-yet-cynical experiment is the resulting sonic explosion.
Ho Ho Ho!
