Listen: Holiday Cornucopia Playlist by Ashley Capps

Big Ears founder and curator Ashley Capps has created a 14-track “Holiday Cornucopia” playlist that we think is perfectly fit for those last-minute holiday preparations—or for trying to stir yourself out of a post-meal slumber. Crisscrossing the whirling melodies of Kayhan Kalhor and the big rhythms of The Comet is Coming, the sprawling atmosphere of Spiritualized and the strong jaw of This Heat, these tunes propel you ahead, we hope. Enjoy.
