About SomaFM Christmas Rocks!
Indie and alternative Christmas songs, for anyone allergic to the usual playlist.
Christmas Rocks! joined SomaFM's holiday line-up in 2012. It mixes indie and alternative Christmas songs with classic rock'n'roll ones, so Sufjan Stevens, Belle & Sebastian and Jens Lekman sit alongside the Beach Boys and Bob Dylan.
It suits anyone who wants festive music without the same few chart hits. Like the rest of SomaFM it's ad-free and listener-funded, and it's also in SomaFM's iPhone, iPad and Android apps.
