The third installment of Aussie muso Dan Cribb's year-long punk tribute to The Simpsons is here and it even has a holiday season feel to it. 

Cribb, who is also The Music's own WA editor, has teamed up with Sydney-based duo Andy & Gav McDougall to deliver one of the show's most iconic songs, Baby On Board (as originally sung by Homer's ill-fated barbershop quartet, The B Sharps), with the added bonus of Whacking Day, derived from holiday tune, O Christmas Tree.

While Cribb is a renowned figure in his own right in the Perth music scene, the McDougall brothers have long fronted punk-rock outfit Ebolagoldish.

Be sure to keep an ear out for NSW ska-pop punkers Chris Duke and The Royals as a backing choir in the song's intro.

Cribb's latest The Simpsons tribute follows a cover of Flaming Moe's with emerging Melbourne songwriter Alex Lahey and Dr Zaius/Chimpan-A To Chimpan-Z, featuring Grenadiers' Jesse Coulter, which are to make up new LP, Worst Tribute Ever.

The songs are available via Dan Cribb's Bandcamp page, with new tracks added monthly and available for free download.
