I think it would be fun to have people dressed in straw and other hats, dressed in overalls and flannel shirts playing Jug Band instruments.

Or you could just play jug band or hillbilly type music. Make sure there is some hay on the float and old corn stalks.

I need ideas for a float with the theme for the parade being "HILLBILLY CHRISTMAS'.
You could do a spoof combo of the classic "Dreaming of a White Christmas" (Bing Crosby & Gene Kelly) and "A Griswold Christmas". Rent both movies if you haven't seen them. You could make a structure that looks like open barn doors and the front of the barn, but completely deck it out in a million lights - the people on board can be the 4 main characters of White Christmas and the hillbilly cousins of the Griswolds.
