Playlist: Trinidad Christmas songs
I always love playing Trinidad Christmas songs when preparing Christmas food. It’s such a fun, cheerful vibe.
Here’s a list of all the songs I usually listen to. You can find my Youtube playlist here.
By the way, if you are interested in our Trini culture, I’ve got an entire post on Trini Christmas food here and one about Trini expressions.

This one is fun to wake up everyone on Christmas with.
2. Marcia Miranda – Roast fowl
Marcia Miranda is the queen of Trini Christmas songs especially parang soca.

It really is the best!
4. Marcia Miranda – Bring out de ham
This song was one of my favorites growing up and the video always had us in stitches.
5. Scrunter – Piece ah pork
This one is another Trini Christmas classic and you’ll likely hear this on rotation a couple times a day during the season.
6. Crazy – Yvonne
Crazy is one of our artistic geniuses in the Trini parang soca scene. Here’s an old time song for Christmas morning.
