    “This time around we’ve expanded our family of musicians and our sonic palette alike to create a body of work that has helped us reimagine some classics, shine a light on some lesser-known gems, expand on what constitutes a holiday song, and even present three originals which I think will endure for ages. We had so much fun every step of the way – it felt like we were having a party. The spirit of collaboration, generosity, and musicality has imbued this entire affair The spirit of collaboration, generosity, and musicality has imbued this entire affair from day one. And I think I can speak for all in saying that it has been one of the greatest pleasures both personally and professionally.”

    “I don’t think it’s lost on any of us how rare it is to be doing something so fun and so good all at the same time. Watching Jason, Lane, and Jordan and this incredible team of musicians all lean in on making this record even better this year is a testament to their incredible talent, work ethic, love, and trust they all have for each other.”
