So I recently did a little Google searching, trying to find any sort of song about Route 66 and Christmas together.
I utterly struck out with that quest. So you budding songwriters, here’s your chance to fill a niche.
In the meantime, I did find this gem by Tulsa-based rockabilly artist JD McPherson, who a few years ago released a well-received album, “Socks,” entirely of original Christmas music.
This is one of those tunes from the album. With Santa Claus tooling around in a hot rod, it’s not a big mental stretch to envision Ol’ Saint Nick on Route 66, as well.
If your appetite is whetted, here is the full playlist from McPherson’s “Socks” album.

If anyone comes up with a 66 Christmas song I would enjoy contributing some video for the song (of course 2024).
Very nice.
