Our friends Dando and Carlos Halston have been away for a minute, cooking up who knows what. But Boston’s favorite I-don’t-know-how-you-describe-this-music duo has resurfaced just in time to gift their fans for being naughty and nice. Halston (who provides the theme to the Popblerd podcast, in case you were wondering) release a holiday single every year, and the 2013 chestnut is simply entitled “Christmas.” The track can be downloaded for free here , and they have also thoughtfully included a video for the track.

The Singles Bar: Musclemilk!’s “I’m So Down”
If you’re a constant reader of this here site, you’re familiar with Boston’s duo Halston. Did you know that 1/2 of that band, Carlos Halston, is also a member of another duo, called MuscleMilk!? This band features lead singer Justine, and works a very early Eighties downtown vibe. Think Yoko Ono’s “Walking On Thin Ice”, Blondie, and ESG mixed into a blender with some hip-hop drumming worked in and you get a very good sense of where their new single, […]
The Singles Bar: Halston Spreads Some Holiday Cheer-All Time Low?: Not So Much
While milfs (milves?) everywhere are going gaga over Michael Buble’s Christmas album and their daughters are pissing themselves a tinsel stream over Justin Bieber, what does that leave for the rest of us? Thankfully, answers have arrived in the form of a new song from Boston’s favorite duo, Halston and a video from irreverent rockers All Time Low. Those of you used to Halston’s cheeky, danceable tunes might be initially taken aback by “The Snowman’s Waltz.” Is that a whiff […]
CYN? It’s the Latest JAM from Halston!
Been waiting for a new single from dancey Boston duo Halston? Well, wait no longer, because their new single “CYN” has just made it’s debut. CYN stands for Crack Your Neck, which may sound painful to some, but as someone who’s been going to a chiropractor twice a week for the past month, it’s music to my ears. The synthy flavor of this song is offset by band member Carlos Halston’s rapping debut. Giving me some serious “Wordy Rappinghood” vibes […]
The Viewfinder: Halston’s “Valentime’s Day”
Valentine’s Day is one of those days I’d rather not be bothered with sentiment, but when I heard this song by my favorites Halston celebrating the merits/acknowledging the hardships of the holiday, I felt a warm, fuzzy feeling creep up in my chest. Well, it turned out to be a pretty nasty case of the flu, but still, “Valentime’s Day” can now be added to the pantheon of great songs about the day that serves as a remembrance of the […]

A Moment With…Halston
When a band’s MySpace page lists their music as “country/disco house/indie”, you know you’re in for a fun time. Boston’s Halston (say that five times fast) combines synthy pop of the Eighties with the hooky goodness of…well, the Eighties, and then they put their own modern-day unique spin on it. The guys that comprise Halston-Carlos and Dando-have appeared on this site several times in the past, and I got them to agree not only to an interview, but to premiere their brand-spankin’ […]
