Ready for an Old North State Christmas? Forget the Christmas music on the radio and listen up: Our de facto music editor, Mark Kemp, has compiled a merry list of 23 Christmas songs with North Carolina ties. And Mark knows his stuff. An Asheboro native, he’s worked at both Rolling Stone and MTV. His hand-crafted Spotify playlist of Tar Heel holiday tunes, “Have Yourself a Merry NC Christmas,” is the perfect way to celebrate the season.
