If Christmas songs are supposed to be happy, The Cords have nailed it. The Scottish sister duo released "Favourite Time" earlier this month, and it's a joyous, upbeat indie pop song. Plus, it's the style of holiday song that isn't completely obvious. In fact, it reminds me more of The Vaselines' "Son of a Gun" more than "Frosty the Snowman" or "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree." You could easily play this in the middle of June without anyone realizing it was a holiday song as long as they don't pay close attention to the lyrics. It's not very often that you can discover a new favorite band through a Christmas song, but that could be the case with The Cords!
You can listen to "Favourite Time" below. The single is out on Slumberland Records and Heavenly Creature Records, and is available now via Bandcamp. For more on The Cords, check out the band on Instagram.
