This Christmas

This Christmas

Author: Bryan Duncan November 11, 2023 Duration: 4:09
I wrote this one year at a Christmas banquet that went long. I ran out of songs I knew how to play, so I wrote it backstage on break. It’s mostly about the ‘aftermath’ and the one gift that keeps on giving.

For a few weeks each year, the air changes, memories surface, and music takes on a special warmth. Bryan's Christmas is a personal audio fireside hosted by singer and songwriter Bryan Duncan. This isn't a curated playlist algorithm but a handpicked collection from a lifetime in music. Each episode feels like pulling a favorite, slightly worn record from its sleeve, where Bryan shares the specific songs that define the season for him. You'll hear the stories behind the melodies-why a particular carol moves him, the forgotten verse of a classic that changes its meaning, or the lesser-known track that deserves a place in your holiday rotation. The atmosphere is intimate and reflective, more like a conversation with a musically insightful friend than a formal broadcast. It’s a podcast built for quiet evenings, long drives to see family, or while wrapping gifts, offering a soundtrack that goes beyond the usual suspects to touch the genuine heart of the holiday through sound. Bryan Duncan’s deep connection to these tunes, both as a performer and a lifelong listener, provides a unique and cozy lens on our most musical time of year.
