Release Date: December 05, 2025Label: Sub PopFilmmaker, author, comedian, and cultural icon extraordinaire, John Waters, 79, returns with his second Christmas parody single (and third holiday single with Sub Pop), "John Waters covers 'Little Cindy,'" produced again by his longtime friend and colleague, Grammy-winner, Ian Brennan (Tinariwen, Parchman Prison Project, The Good Ones [Rwanda], Ramblin' Jack Elliott). Waters says, "In the tradition of novelty records, which I've always loved, this year I pay tribute to one of my favorite hymns that was once included in my 'John Waters Christmas' album - sung by the ever-holy child vocalist Little Cindy. I have never been in drag professionally, but with this little sticks-and-stones gift record to bad children everywhere, I channel Little Cindy's voice and aura, even stumbling over the exact words she did on the original 45rpm version. Little Cindy is beyond saintly in my opinion, a minor miracle, a human spiritual sacrament who brings her devoted sanctity to this psalm of southern sentimentality. For a few vinyl minutes, I hope listeners will agree: John Waters IS Little Cindy. Tracklist John Waters Covers "Little Cindy" (Happy Birthday Jesus) A Pig Latin Visit From St. Nicholas
