Fans of the site should already be familiar with local alt garage punks Sad Baxter (read this post), but if you’re not acquainted, fear not! You can click on after the jump to get hip to their socials, plus go ahead and dig into their latest LP, Weirdy, released on local indie label Cold Lunch Recordings. Also worthy of note, they’ll be dropping by our annual Christmas Caroling Show this Saturday, Dec. 17 at The 5 Spot to help bring everyone some free holiday cheer. With this in mind, we are super stoked to help them debut a holiday tune, a Sad Baxter-fied version of The Beach Boys’ “Little Saint Nick.” Hear the song below, then experience it in person this weekend!
