A festive playlist by our resident Santa
Rent-A-Santa founder, Damian Samuels – better known as Father Christmas’s agent – has compiled a selection of yuletide songs to get listeners into the festive spirit
In 2008, while sitting on the sofas on the fifth floor of Shoreditch House, actor and filmmaker Damian Samuels founded his Santa hire company. That same year, we invited him to bring Santa’s grotto into the House – a tradition that’s continued ever since. This festive season, Samuels and his team have brought Christmas cheer to children across our UK Houses.

With the aid of a trusted elf (British musician Tim Thornton), Samuels has put together a selection of songs suitable for all festive occasions. Expect some classics, Christmas carol favourites, and pop icons Mariah Carey, Sir Paul McCartney, Kelly Clarkson, and Joni Mitchell.
