Joel Kopischke – “O Festivus”

Joel Kopischke’s humorous holiday release I Got Yule Babe has been heard on XM Radio, Direct TV, the Dr. Demento radio show and other venues across the globe, proving there’s no accounting for some people’s taste. Joel contributed his own Festivus Carol, to honor the alternative holiday created by the character of George Costanza’s cranky father on Seinfeld. Joel, a Milwaukee-area native, has worked as a writer, director and performer for the Milwaukee Symphony, Skylight Opera, First Stage Milwaukee, Melody Top and other groups. We’re honored to include Joel in this TCD/WMSE project.—Tom Strini
