Chicago’s [Autofill](https://autofill.bandcamp.com/album/git-yr-fill?utm%5Fsource=album%5Frelease&utm%5Fmedium=email&utm%5Fcontent=fanpub%5Ffnb&utm%5Fcampaign=autofill%2Balbum%2Bgit-yr-fill) dropped a new one called *Get Yr Fill*.

If you’re feeling sad looking at the Christmas tree, try [Shrudd’s covers](https://shrudd.bandcamp.com/album/white-christmas-have-yourself-a-merry-little-christmas?ref=see-saw.fun) of some Christmas standards.
