A playlist of Chapel Hill-themed holiday songs
Posted Dec 20, 2024
Joni Mitchell went Christmas caroling in the Morgan Creek neighborhood in December 1970 with her then boyfriend, James Taylor. Six months later, Mitchell’s album Blue was released, featuring a song that just has to be about Chapel Hill. In the history of Chapel Hill’s music scene, there’s never been a band quite like the Squirrel Nut Zippers.
