CHRISTMAS CHEER SOUNDTRACK! Rockin' The Holidays with Tom Lounges

This edition of MIDWEST BEAT is a SPECIAL CHRISTMAS SHOW originally aired Christmas Day, DECEMBER 25, 2015

GREAT SEASONAL SONGS!   Blues, Country, Rock and Homegrown Artists playing tunes from the outer reaches of the Holiday Music Spectrum.    As those who regularly listen to “Midwest BEAT” and host Tom Lounges might expect, this is NOT your father’s Holiday Music program.

It just wouldn’t be Christmas in Northwest Indiana without Tom Lounges spinning some of his favorite deep cut Holiday tunes on the Lakeshore airwaves by such artists as — Eddie Money, B.B. King, Steve Cropper, Charlie Daniels, The Band, The Ventures, Rev. Horton Heat, Judge Jackson & Billy Bob Thornton, and others.

While tuned in to this music intensive program (no guests, little talking, and LOTS of music!), be sure to keep your ears peeled for some tasty, and sadly never heard on radio holiday tunes local music favorites as — Phil Angotti & The Idea, Kanisha K., Nomad Planets, and The Country Aces (featuring Nelson Wynn, Jerry Clemons, Rick Crane, Zeke Rongers, Jamie Patton, and others).

This edition of “Midwest BEAT with Tom Lounges”  will air only at 1:00pm CST on CHRISTMAS DAY…so don’t miss it!   Remember, nothing goes better with a mid-day pint of Christmas Grog than an hour of Tom Lounges’ favorite deep cuts and off the radar seasonal songs.

“Midwest BEAT with Tom Lounges” airs on 89.1FM-LakeShore Public Radio and streams live in real time online stream at: www.lakeshorepublicmedia.org.

Tom Lounges has been a radio personality and music journalist since 1979. For the last 43 years, Tom has been reporting on entertainment as a weekly music columnist and feature writer for The Times newspaper.
