Welcome to Locals Only the New Zealand music podcast where we talk Aotearoa’s finest musicians about the soundtracks of their lives. Joining me today is an artist who was raised by the elves of the North Pole in a cosy home filled with the smells of chestnuts roasting on an open fire. His time in the winter wonderland has filled him with a mirth worth sharing with the world not only on Christmas day but in the middle of the New Zealand winter. He does so through the art of Jingle Bell Ballads such as The Christmas Elf Who Pissed Himself. And you can see this PIssmas spectacular live this week from the Basement Theatre. A Very Jed Parsons Xmas. This week in the Locals Only Lounge, it's Jed Parsons!!
