| Chris Jericho is getting into the holiday spirit!

Press here, and listen below, to Chris Jericho & The Christmas Helves‘ version of the classic song, available now on all DSPs via The Orchard, which first premiered on Chris’s radio show The Rock Of Jericho on SiriusXM Octane. |
| “I’ve always wanted to do a Christmas song, as it’s guaranteed annual airplay (and if I hear ‘Wonderful Christmas Time’ one more time, I’m gonna stuff myself down a chimney), so I put together the musical assassins known as ‘The Christmas Helves’ and banged out this sugarplum version of my favorite Kinks tune!,” shares Jericho. “Best part is all proceeds will be donated to JDRF to fight Juvenile Diabetes! So, grab your eggnog and frankincense…whatever the hell that is…and rock out with your Santa sack out.” |
