Amazon Original Holiday Playlists 'Indie For The Holidays' and 'Acoustic Christmas' Premiere New Exclusive Tracks Today

Stream Best Coast's cover of The Beach Boys' "Little Saint Nick" here:

"Being from California and being heavily influenced by The Beach Boys we felt like we had to cover this one!," said Best Coast's Bethany Consentino. "Also always fun for me to cover a song with a wall of harmonies and background vocals because it's my favorite part about recording vocals."

Indie for the Holidays - The popular "Indie for the Holidays" playlist adds 18 new songs this holiday season, including tracks from some of the genre's most acclaimed stars. Kevin Morby wraps up a banner year that saw the release of his widely lauded breakthrough City Music, by contributing a moody, crooning take on "Blue Christmas." Charly Bliss, whose debut album Guppy has likewise seen widespread praise in 2017, offer a driving and delightful version of Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You." DJ Camilo Lara's Mexican Institute of Sound and indie rock mainstays Best Coast, Eisley, Albert Hammond Jr. and Dean & Britta also join the playlist for the first time this year.

Additionally, Matt Costa recorded his own track, "Anything Helps," for individuals who are less fortunate around the holidays. Costa says, "I recently saw a friend who fell to a dark place and was too embarrassed to ask for help. People joined funds together to get him back on his feet and into a warm bed with shelter. 'Anything Helps' is dedicated to those who have donated time and money to help people in a crisis. It tears me up to see people suffer. But it is encouraging to see extra strong people lift the burden of others. I put heavy consideration into the title so the song did not have a negative feeling, but would inspire people to look at these problems and think of positive ways to help."
