It’s that magical time of year again when 94.9 WHOM flips the switch from our regular playlist to non-stop, 24/7 Christmas music, and yes, we are stoked.

Easy to guess why, right? Holiday music is fun and festive, but it goes deeper for us.

It’s more than just songs; it’s a doorway to walk straight into memories you didn’t even realize you carried. It gives you the goosebumps, that fuzzy feeling of nostalgia, which makes the holidays that much more special.

For me, listening to Kelly Clarkson’s, "My Grown-Up Christmas List" takes me back into my childhood kitchen with my Mom.

She’s singing, I’m singing, and we’re dancing together and making Greek cookies, wearing matching aprons. I always wanted to be just like her. She’s giving me her secret recipes and even letting me sip on a little brandy. She somehow managed always to make the holidays special, no matter what struggles life brought to us.

So, we encourage you to call in, share your holiday kitchen memories, request those songs that take you back, and join the conversation.

Whether you are listening on-air, streaming through our free 949HOM APP, or asking Alexa to turn us on, we’re here to make your holidays a little more magical.
