If you’re living on planet Earth, then you probably haven’t missed the zillions of commercials and ad placements around you that are “preparing” you for the holidays. And – whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, New Years, Ramadan, Kwanzaa, Chrismukkah, or Festivus – it IS the season of giving, whether you’re ready for it or not.
Well, we’re here for those of you who aren’t. It’s the last week of shopping before some big ones, and we know you might be stuck with no where to turn. Have no fear! If your friend/mother/sister/brother/son/uncle/acquaintance is a music lover – and we’re guessing someone probably is in your immediate circle – here are some gifts they are sure to love! Yes, this is a crazy random list, but it includes some of our favorites. So show it some love and give it a chance! As always, Happy Holidays from your friends at IMPOSE!

1. Pick Punch // Because who doesn’t want the ability to make an endless supply of guitar picks for super flippin’ cheap? You can make them out of almost anything – we suggest recycled vinyl – and voila! Plus, it doubles as a jewelry make for those people in your life who want to wear their music for the world to see!
2. Wireless Charger for Smartphone // Any festival or concert-goer knows that it’s difficult to keep your phone charged when you’re out and about with friends. Taking photos, video, sending Snaps, posting to social media… all of that can drain the fuck out of your battery! Make sure to have one of these in tow for your music-lovin’ friends! (Best part? NOT expensive!)
