Add international freight delays, a hike in shipping costs, and a labor shortage, and you have a recipe for a late or lost gift. If you still have gifts that you need to purchase for the music lover in your life, know that it\u2019s not too late with these 10 last-minute holiday gift ideas that you can either pick up in-store, or order and have delivered day-of. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-music-magazine-subscriptions\"><span>Music Magazine Subscriptions<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With so much free music media available, it can be difficult to justify a magazine subscription to publications like <em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/subscribe.rollingstone.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Rolling Stone<\/a><\/em>, <em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/magazine-mix-one-year-subscription\/22934290\" target=\"_blank\">Mix<\/a><\/em>, or <em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.magazinesdirect.com\/az-magazines\/6936499\/guitar-world-magazine-subscription.thtml\" target=\"_blank\">Guitar World<\/a><\/em>. This is a great gift to receive because it\u2019s something you wouldn\u2019t normally splurge on for yourself. This time of year, there are usually some pretty good deals happening that won\u2019t set you back more than $50 for a year-long subscription. Plus, it\u2019s a gift that will keep on giving for the whole year with monthly deliveries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-siriusxm-subscription\">SiriusXM Subscription<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you know someone who spends a good portion of their week commuting by car, a SiriusXM subscription will make their drive significantly more enjoyable. Digital gift cards are available through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.target.com\/c\/gift-cards\/sirius-xm\/-\/N-5xsxuZq643lexb8zr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Target<\/a> in $25-$200 amounts. Newer cars will usually have a way to connect through the car console, but older cars will need a SiriusXM receiver. If this is the case, you could always include enough money on the digital gift card to purchase a receiver through the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/shop.siriusxm.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">SiriusXM site<\/a>, which comes with a few months of free service.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even for your friends who don\u2019t drive, you can still connect all of your SiriusXM channels to your home speakers through the app. This makes a really great gift for someone who is a die-hard fan of artists like Bob Marley, Bruce Springsteen, the Beatles, the Grateful Dead, Dave Matthews, or Phish, because they have designated channels that will play these artists 24\/7. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-spotify-premium\">Spotify Premium<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you know someone who is suffering through ads with their free Spotify account, alleviate their misery with a subscription to Spotify Premium. Not only will they get to enjoy their music commercial-free with unlimited skips, but they\u2019ll get to see their Spotify Wrapped insights at the end of the year that everybody has been blabbing about on social media for the past few weeks. You can purchase an electronic Spotify gift card through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.target.com\/p\/spotify-gift-card-email-delivery\/-\/A-53176263\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Target<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-books-on-music\"><strong>Books on Music<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This year has provided us with plenty of great books about music, from Quest Love\u2019s <em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/56969492-music-is-history\" target=\"_blank\">Music is History<\/a>, <\/em>to <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/57648017-the-storyteller\" target=\"_blank\">Dave Grohl\u2019s autobiography<\/a>, to the new read <em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/en\/book\/show\/56912932-major-labels\" target=\"_blank\">Major Labels<\/a><\/em> by <em>New Yorker<\/em> staff writer Kelefa Sanneh, to the new <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/54816401-please-please-tell-me-now\" target=\"_blank\">tell-all about Duran Duran<\/a> by <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/online.berklee.edu\/takenote\/podcast-episode-fifteen-stephen-davis\/?campaign_id=7010Z000001ZkQgQAK&amp;pid=&amp;utm_source=takenote&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=bol-gen-takenote-link-from-article\" target=\"_blank\">Stephen Davis<\/a>\u2014who, BTW, was an excellent guest on the Berklee Online\u2019s <em><a href=\"https:\/\/online.berklee.edu\/takenote\/podcast-episode-fifteen-stephen-davis\/?campaign_id=7010Z000001ZkQgQAK&amp;pid=&amp;utm_source=takenote&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=bol-gen-takenote-link-from-article\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Music is My Life<\/a><\/em> podcast. If you\u2019re looking for a book to give in-person, head to your local bookstore and explore the music section. Some book stores are even kind enough to wrap the book for you. For day-of book gifting, you could send the book digitally if the recipient has a Kindle, or as an audiobook through Audible. The independent bookstore Powell\u2019s also offers an app called <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/libro.fm\/powells\" target=\"_blank\">Libro.fm<\/a> where you can gift audiobooks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-berklee-online-egift-card\">Berklee Online eGift Card<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you know someone who wants to get serious about studying music, you can help them attend Berklee College of Music from anywhere with a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/online.berklee.edu\/giftcard?campaign_id=7010Z000001ZkQgQAK&amp;pid=&amp;utm_source=takenote&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=bol-gen-takenote-link-from-article\" target=\"_blank\">Berklee Online eGift card<\/a>. Available at several pricing tiers, eGift cards can count toward Berklee Online\u2019s 12-week courses and certificate programs. Although a $1,620 course is likely out of most gift budgets, even $100 towards a course might be the motivation someone needs to start learning music theory, guitar, music production, and more. Plus if you want to go in as a collaborative family, or friend group gift, it\u2019s like crowdsourcing your loved one\u2019s music career. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-musician-crafted-wine-or-spirit\">A Musician-Crafted Wine or Spirit<br><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>From <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/drizly.com\/wine\/red-wine\/red-blend\/19-crimes-cali-red-snoop-dogg\/p107936\" target=\"_blank\">Snoop Dogg\u2019s California red wine<\/a>, to <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/drizly.com\/liquor\/whiskey\/bourbon\/heavens-door-straight-bourbon-whiskey\/p86573\" target=\"_blank\">Bob Dylan\u2019s Heaven\u2019s Door bourbon<\/a>, to <a href=\"https:\/\/drizly.com\/liquor\/rum\/white-rum\/sammys-beach-bar-rum\/p9472\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Sammy Hagar\u2019s Beach Bar Rum<\/a>, many musicians have added alcoholic beverages to their repertoire. With the help of the drink delivery service Drizly, you can have a bottle delivered to your friend\u2019s door the same day. Just download the app, see which drinks are available in their area, and either surprise them with a delivery if you know they\u2019ll be home, or send them an email where they can schedule their own delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-concert-tickets\">Concert Tickets<br><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that live music is making a comeback, giving concert tickets as a present is even more meaningful. Digital or physical gift cards are available in amounts of $25-$500 through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ticketmaster.com\/giftcards\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Ticketmaster<\/a>. Another option is to check to see if the recipient\u2019s go-to venue in their area offers gift cards. The money will likely go further for a local small venue than a sports arena. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-daw-subscription-nbsp\">DAW Subscription&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A Digital Audio Workstation, or DAW, is an expense that most musicians need to shell out. If you know someone who would appreciate a subscription to a DAW program, here are some gifting options:<br>Apple\u2019s <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/us\/app\/logic-pro-x\/id634148309\" target=\"_blank\">Logic Pro X<\/a> priced at $199.99, is a good option for Mac users. <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/support.apple.com\/en-us\/HT201783\" target=\"_blank\">Here are instructions on how to send an app<\/a>, however, the easiest route may be emailing an <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.apple.com\/shop\/buy-giftcard\/giftcard\" target=\"_blank\">Apple gift card<\/a>. Here are instructions for gifting <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/help.ableton.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/115001837150-Purchasing-Live-as-a-gift\" target=\"_blank\">Ableton Live<\/a> and Avid\u2019s Pro Tools. Again, an easier route might be a gift card to a place like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/shop\/gift-cards\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Sweetwater<\/a> where the receiver can buy the DAW license themselves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-vinyl-subscription\">Vinyl Subscription<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting at $6.99 per month, you can give someone a 3-12 month subscription to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinylpost.co\/product\/gift-plans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Vinyl Post<\/a>, an indie record club that offers singles pressed on vinyl postcards. And yes, you can play the postcards on a record player! Each single is curated by the music blog <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.birp.fm\/\" target=\"_blank\">birp.fm<\/a> and features up-and-coming indie, dream pop, and lo-fi artists. They also offer full-size 10-track compilation vinyl albums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At a higher price point ($119 for a three-month subscription), you can give a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinylmeplease.com\/products\/gift-membership\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Vinyl Me Please<\/a> membership, where the recipient will receive a new full-size vinyl record each month in the genre of their choice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-for-the-music-lover-who-has-everything\">For the Music Lover Who Has Everything . . . <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You could donate to a music charity. This is a great idea for someone who has everything they need to enjoy music, and wants to give back to those who don&#8217;t have the same luxury. <a href=\"https:\/\/musicwill.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Music Will (opens in a new tab)\">Music Will<\/a> is a non-profit that provides instruments and contemporary music instruction to US schools that are lacking music education programs. The Recording Academy&#8217;s <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.musicares.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">MusiCares<\/a> is another admirable non-profit that helps musicians who have fallen on hard times, whether they&#8217;re facing medical, financial, or personal emergencies. For someone who cares about mental health and wellbeing, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/backline.care\/\" target=\"_blank\">Backline<\/a> is a wonderful non-profit organization that offers mental health services to those working in the music industry.  We&#8217;ve featured their work a few times on <em>Take Note<\/em>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last but not least, if you\u2019re a musician or songwriter yourself (and can bang out a song pretty quickly), a song or poem makes a really meaningful gift. Also it\u2019s super budget-friendly if you\u2019re in any degree of the proverbial \u201cstarving artist\u201d category. The only thing it costs is your creativity and your time. You could upload the song to YouTube and send it by text or email with a note. Or you could write a poem on some nice paper and send it through the mail if you have the time. For a long-distance friendship, relationship, or family member, what could be more thoughtful than this gift from the heart?<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you still have
