For the past few months, you’ve seen the signs of the holiday season as decorations have turned most retail stores into a Winter Wonderland filled with gift ideas for December 25th. Even at AIP Marketing Alliance’s home office in Troy, Michigan, our employees are starting to see a few snowflakes as the winter atmosphere and homes with holiday decorations light up most of our neighborhoods.

Most of you also are experiencing children making their lists, and you are taking the time to check it once or twice – whether purchasing from a brick-and-mortar store or taking the online purchase route. The person making us jolly in 2023 is usually a mail carrier or delivery person carrying a large sack of boxes from Amazon or other retailers to place on the porch versus shimmying down the chimney.

Since the holiday spirit is flowing pretty strongly within our office, AIP Marketing Alliance decided to do something a bit different to hopefully remove the Bah Humbugs of Ebenezer Scrooge and replace those emotions with Tiny Tim’s hopeful dreams about the holidays.

AIP Marketing Alliance has launched our official 2023 Holiday Song Playlist on Spotify! You can get a taste of this list of tunes by checking out the Spotify Player below.

All of these holiday-inspired songs were personally selected by AIPMA’s employees. You will find a wide variety of song choices, including the famous “Do They Know It’s Christmas” by Band Aid to Michigan-based songs like “Christmas Eve on Woodward Avenue” by Karen Newman, the legendary national anthem singer for the Detroit Red Wings.

The musicians on this year’s playlist also include Frank Sinatra, Carrie Underwood, Chuck Berry, Bob Seger, Michael Bublé, Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Sting, Bing Crosby, The New Birth Brass Band, Louis Prima, August Burns Red, Mariah Carey, Brian Setzer, Wham!, Jose Feliciano, Lindsey Stirling, Taylor Swift, Daryl Hall & John Oates, Pentatonix, Gwen Stefani, Ariana Grande, The Jackson 5, Dean Martin, Jewel, Dolly Parton, Leona Lewis, Cheap Trick, and even a duet from Lzzy Hale of Halestorm and Dee Snider of Twisted Sister.

“We had our whole team come up with some great suggestions for 2023’s Holiday Playlist, and I think you will be pleasantly surprised at some of the cover songs as well as some original ones,” said Darron Markwood, Vice President of Marketing. “Please feel free to share this list with your family, friends, and co-workers as we start feeling the holiday spirit throughout December.”

Note: You may need to download the Spotify app on your specific device to access this playlist. You can access the 2023 Holiday Playlist at https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6en8K54KGKwROE7AVOVJlf?si=affa5ab9bb794a0f.
