Pete: Best Time Of The Year (Jingle Jangle)

Music

Dec. 7

What’s in the bag Santa?

It’s a Christmas song from Pete (also heard in With Violet). Best time of the Year, released in 2020, is an upbeat sleigh bell jingling tribute to the carolling/Christmas music and spending time with people you love. It’s fun. It’s energetic. It’s a contagious. You can’t not tap your toes.

Check it out.
