New Single
"Climb These Heights"
Toronto, ON — Emerging alt-rock outfit Pink Leather Jackets have dropped their seasonal single, “MAKE IT THRU THIS CHRISTMAS,” offering a bold, emotionally raw take on the holidays. The track weaves gritty guitar textures, urgent vocals and a storm-cloud of sentiment into a soundscape that punches through the typical festive shimmer.
About the Song
In “MAKE IT THRU THIS CHRISTMAS,” Pink Leather Jackets forge an alternative-rock holiday anthem that doesn’t hide its edges. With pounding rhythms and a melodic undercurrent of yearning, thetrack captures the duality of the season: warmth and strain, celebration and survival. The band describes it as “not your typical holly-jolly Christmas song.” Reflecting the band’s signature blend of raw emotion and rock-driven energy, the song delves into themes of togetherness, loneliness, resilience, hope, and uncertainty through hardship. It’s a timely reminder that sometimes the greatest gift is simply making it through – whether you’re together or not.
Sound & Vision
Produced with an authentic, live-feel energy, the single opens with spare guitar and vocals before exploding into a full-bodied chorus that rings with chorus-ready hooks and heartfelt intensity. The band collaborated with producer and engineer Keegan Porter at his home studio in Mississauga, Ontario. “Originally I thought we were recording a couple demos but we liked it so much that we just had to get it out for this season” says front-man Chris Woolley. The track was mixed by Keegan Porter and mastered by Kristian Montano.
Why It Matters
With saturation of overly polished seasonal tracks, “MAKE IT THRU THIS CHRISTMAS” stands out by leaning into authenticity and the raw side of the holidays. For fans of alternative rock with meaning, and for listeners who appreciate a holiday track that acknowledges struggle and hope alike, this is one to add to your rotation.
