Released on November 29, 2024, “A Thousand Christmas Trees” is a striking holiday single from Philadelphia-based duo The Divys. This dreamy jewel flawlessly blends the band’s signature New Wave sound with classic Christmas vibes, thereby transporting listeners back to the historic era of 1984.
Heavily influenced by Eurythmics, Culture Club, and Band-Aid, The Divys’ unique fusion of harder rock and electronic dance music backgrounds gleams throughout. The track’s energetic beat, perfectly balanced with endearing vocals, demands attention. DEVO, Billy Idol, and Heart’s inspirations are cautiously interlaced, refining the song’s retro charm.
