CKMS Community Connections for 15 December 2025: KWCon Christmas Music

Show Notes

(a Christmas tree drawn from a spiraling music staff)
 

There was no guest in the studio today, so Bob played some KWCon Christmas music by Waterloo Region musicians. Except for The Small Town Titans, but Bob couldn’t let such a catchy tune escape unplayed.
