Comedian/actor/singer-songwriter Tim Heidecker released an original holiday song. Heidecker’s witty “Santa Claus Is Crying” gives Father Christmas a pessimistic view on the children of the world.
The single comes on the heels of High School, an excellent full-length studio album the versatile Heidecker released back in June. Tim Heidecker & The Very Good Band embarked on an extensive tour in support of the LP. A live EP arrived last month featuring four songs recorded on August 9 at the Boulder Theater in Colorado.

The JamBase Podcast: Tim Heidecker
Comedian/actor/singer-songwriter Tim Heidecker is interviewed on the latest episode of ‘The JamBase Podcast.’
“Here’s a little treat for you, a brand new holiday classic,” Heidecker wrote in a note accompanying the track. “Try slipping it into your Christmas Mix this year and see what happens!” Tim was accompanied on “Santa Claus Is Crying” by Dan Mulcahy.
Tim Heidecker channels Brian Wilson in his vocal delivery of the sad tune. Check it out below:
