"A Winter's Tale," The Boy Least Likely To (self-issued)

A few years back this British indie duo cut an entire holiday album, and now they've come back with a new Christmas single for 2017. This is a melodic midtempo lament of lost love on the holiday, with a very faint evocation of the kind of sound George Harrison had on All Things Must Pass, at least that's what came to me on first listen. It's a strong entry for your holiday playlists.
