One of the things that I always liked about Christmas music is it's permanence. Maybe a Christmas song only gets played for a few days a year, but it will get played...even if only by your mother or closest friend. And one of the things I like about the Indie era is that anybody can do anything. You don't have to wait for Columbia records to tap you on the shoulder and you don't have to raise thousands of dollars to make your song and reach anywhere from dozens to millions of people. Justin Beiber is a star because of the Internet. Zee Avi got signed to a record deal thanks to a very bad video of a very good Christmas song she posted on YouTube. These do-it-yourself efforts vary. But if I stumble across something I kind of like, I'm going to share it with you. And I kind of like this 2009 song (and YouTube clip) from Rachel Brown. I don't know who she is, but I don't see much that separates her Christmas song from one by Colbie Caillat. And I like Colbie Caillat. Rachel, as it turns out, is a working musician in New York City and she's got a MySpace page. Me, I just liked the song. You can download an mp3 of "Snow With Maple Syrup" here.
