The Bands that Stole X-Mas Out of Print CD: Christmas songs from local bands 1998

So the kids were demanding Christmas music in the car yesterday, so I put this on and made it about halfway through the second song before a bleeped out F word happened and I had to change it… but it made me wonder if this was on youtube yet. Nope. So here you go- all Sacramento bands doing either their own Christmas composition or a cover of a Christmas classic. I am tagging all of the band members who I am friends with- feel free to tag others.

The Brodys- Demo 1995 Sacramento Pop Punk band xfer from master demo tape

Since I have not been giving any Sacramento bands much love recently, let’s do a 2fer today. The first one comes from Anonymous 2’s big collection of demo tapes. This was The Brody’s first demo- first release. It’s pretty cool that they are still playing shows, 30 years later.

Recorded by: Enharmonik Studios

Equipment used: Nakamichi Dragon and M-Audio Audiophile 2496 card
