Spring Summer – “Holiday Dream” (Feat. Mac McCaughan)

Spring Summer, aka Jennifer Furches, has a new holiday song out today in collaboration with Superchunk’s Mac McCaughan. “Holiday Dream” is highly original Christmas fare, with a tasteful yet genuinely moving arrangement and some lyrics that capture the spirit of the season without resorting to cliche. “Holding hands down the Bowery/ Chestnut smoke and subway steam,” Furches sings. “Had a paper bag held between our knees/ In this bitter cold, you say the sweetest things.” On the chorus, she harmonizes with McCaughan: “Are you floating through the silver and green? Are you with my in this holiday dream?”
