Guster

Boston’s own alternative rock band, Guster, recorded a seasonal single written by band member Ryan Miller called “Tiny Christmas Tree.” The song was also featured in a Target commercial. The band formed in 1991.

A sample of “Tiny Christmas Tree”:
So pull the shades and set the mood,
With candlelight and Chinese food
“It’s a Wonderful Life” plays on loop,
The makings of a perfect Christmas time
