It's beginning to look a lot like a 'Crooner Christmas' – Listen now on Audacy's Exclusive Station

Audacy has your perfect holiday playlist to keep it cool and classic...

Although the word "croon," to sing soft and sad, should allow the inclusion of countless singers (ahem, Mariah Carey, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Diana Ross...), the classic characterization of a "Crooner" is a male vocalist who sings Jazz standards, like Frank Sinatra, John Legend, or Michael Bublé, for example.

This year, while you're mixing it up with friends and family, and the egg nog is a-flowin', Audacy has your perfect playlist to keep it cool and classic. Tune in to our Crooner Christmas Exclusive Station featuring some of the smoothest singers of past and present, giving their own spins on holiday greats and originals.
