This Saturday, join VPR for Vermont performers with tunes of food and drink and gratitude.

This year, as we try to protect ourselves and those we love against COVID-19 by practicing social distancing, the holidays will take on a different look and feel. While we are apart, we can lean on the memories of holidays past! In this episode, Safe & Sound offers up an hour of Vermont music celebrating celebrations themselves. We'll play Vermont artists singing songs about food and drink and celebrations, plus plenty of tunes focusing on gratitude and a positive attitude.
