Before we put a bow on 2025 it's only fitting that we send some holiday cheer your way from Loveland, OH with two new 45s available now for pre-order. Both of these records were recorded in SW Ohio, with Parlor Greens being at our own Portage Lounge, while Kelly Finnigan's marks the first recording (pressed to vinyl) at his new Little Blue studio here in Cincinnati!

Kelly Finnigan
"I Can't Wait (For Christmas Time)" b/w "Snowy Night in Ohio"
Colemine Records
Digital Single Now Streaming. 45 out 12/12/25
"I Can’t Wait (For Christmas Time)" is a heavy yet laid back cut with a straight ahead pop arrangement. It’s that rust belt soul sound with the kind of harmonies that fuel Southern California cruisers; deep and emotive with just the right amount of instrumentation to push Finnigan’s tender voice forward. The tune also features label mate Kendra Morris and her band on backing vocals. Akin to previous KF releases or gems by The Escorts or The Four Mints, this record is meant for you and yours, wrapped in pretty paper under the tree until Christmas morning.
Parlor Greens
"Auld Lang Syne" b/w "Everyday Will Be Like A Holiday"
Colemine Records

Looking for a fresh 45 to spin this holiday season? Look no further than your friendly neighborhood organ trio Parlor Greens! Their take on The Black On White Affair's classic version of Auld Lang Syne on the a-side, which absolutely crushes. Scone tears the organ to shreds leaving nothing left but a few stockings and some wrapping paper. Flip to over to close the night with a beautiful and mellow instrumental version of William Bell's "Every Day Will Be Like A Holiday." Two sides to this very merry coin.
