Caroling Time Again w/Julian Koster!

It's a ho-ho-ho set to go-go-go: send your caroling request to the Koster clan asap!

By Blurt Staff

Once again, Julian Koster and his Singing Saw will come to your house to bring songs, stories, and good cheer to you and your friends - all you have to do is invite them. 

Julian introduced the world to the wonderful holiday traditions of his friends, The Singing Saws, last year with The Singing Saw at Christmastime. This bizarre and beautiful album and it's accompanying glimpse into Julian's vivid imagination has become an instant holiday classic.  If you have not yet heard The Singing Saw at Christmastime, please let me know.  A video of Julian and his Saw playing "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" and a downloadable MP3 can be found here.

You may invite the carolers to visit your house by emailing musictapescaroling@gmail.com or by mailing a handwritten letter to 450 N. Harris St. Athens, GA  30601 (due to time constraints, please send an email to let the "caroling ambassador" know you are sending a letter).

Be sure to include an email address or telephone number for reply.  Invitations where the hosts indicate that they would be willing to entertain outside guests on caroling night are preferred. Please note your permission to invite others from the area to your house and whether you can offer the carolers a place to sleep in your letter or email. 

Once the limit on houses on a given night has been reached, the address of each house that will welcome guests will be distributed via email to all who email musictapescaroling@gmail.com and ask to attend. The addresses of the houses will not be posted online.
