After all the festive celebrations, tonight it was time to chillout and relax. Our music mix tonight had more than a hint of the Christmas season about it. Added to this were some other laid back tracks. Feature albums were from Lady Antebellum, Pentatonix and Elvis Presley. We heard from a number of listeners, including the Edwards family listening in Kentucky.
