The Wonderful Indie Winter Wonderland Playlist

With the days getting shorter and the dark nights coming sooner, you may find yourself stuck inside quite a lot. The leaves are turning brown, the sky grey. Weather can be crap for a lot of you out there and being a Florida native I never knew what that was like until I moved to England. I shouldn’t complain about the weather, I know it is practically a British past time, but there is no escaping that it is pitch black by 4 pm.

When December rolls around however, it is impossible to escape all the Holiday and Christmas cheer music. I love a Santa song as much as the next, but I also like my winter songs to be melodic, a little dark, but also just lovely to listen to.

If you are still finding yourself grounded inside, put on this Indie Winter playlist and cozy up by the fire. Take a look outside and watch the snow fall with more than two hours of some pretty amazing tunes.
