As I put this Christmas music blog together every year, I always come across artists that are new (at least to me). This year, Rend Collective, The New Pornographers and the Oh Hellos come to mind. Downhere and for King and Country were new for me last year.
This year, my favorite “new find” is Meghan Ali (as in alley) aka Meghan Maguire. She’s an Irish artist who released a single back in 2013, Coming Home. The song brought me back to days when I was away frequently (whether in the service, in college or just on the road for work) and that great feeling you get when finally heading home. I featured it tonight because December 23 is typically a travel day. The song is dedicated to “anybody who finds themselves on foreign shores at Christmas or to people who are coming home.”
Coming Home has only been released as a single. You can find it here, or here. It’s a wonderful, infectious tune. Give it a listen.
