Twas the season of giving at fair CKUA
So we gathered some artists, for a Hidden Track Holiday!
In the music library they played, bringing songs of good cheer
To help us close the sixth season, another great year!

They shared festive tall tales and holiday fables
As well as what they love most on their Christmas turntables
So keep a glow in your heart when it's coldest and darkest,
As we're treated to music from these beloved artists:

With Lydia Persaud and Christine Bougie beside her,
You'll soon be serenaded by Serena Ryder!
The Good Lovelies will bring you a joyful noise
As will Jake Vaadeland and his Sturgeon River Boys.

Here they come wassailing in our quaint Christmas corner!
And making CKUA's holidays yet warmer
Is knowing that all of our programming, diverse and assorted

Is thanks to our donors; we are donor supported!

So in this season of giving, we say thanks to you,
The CKUA supporter, for all that you do.
Please accept this offering, and tell
Whoever you think would enjoy it, as well!

To the whole wide world, this merry-making is free!
There's plenty of room 'neath the CKUA tree.
So on podcast platforms and CKUA's YouTube,
Share the holiday cheer, and some serious Yule grooves.

It's Part Four of Hidden Track's collaboration with Music Yukon.

In this Hidden Track Session, we visit with a trio of artists who amply demonstrate the phenomenally wide spectrum of music-makers who call the Yukon home: John from Dawson's dynamic rap; the piano artistry of singer-songwriter Declan O'Donovan; and the majestic folk stylings of Caleb Tomlinson & the Perseids.
